Try running the command inside run.bat. After getting it all back on one
line, it's:
java -classpath
external_classes\icebrowserlitebean.jar;%JAVA_HOME%\lib\tools.jar;gui_streaming_news.jar
sproat.lugnet.news.streaming.GUIClient
Oops. Hmmm. I need to fix that. For Linux, it'd probably be:
java -classpath
external_classes/icebrowserlitebean.jar;$JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar;gui_streaming_news.jar
sproat.lugnet.news.streaming.GUIClient
I originally used the -jar option, but Sun's JVM seems to have an issue with
that and a classpath on the command line. After I added the Ice browser jar
file, I couldn't my jarfile's manifest to load my app class. Bummer. :-P

I thought about that. Due to the in-browser JVM's security model, the applet
can't open a network connection to any server but the one it was served from.
IOW, the client applet wouldn't work unless it was downloaded directly from
lugnet.com .
I guess it could work from another server, if that server redirected all HTTP
to lugnet.com , but there are several issues I'd need to work out, some of
them non-technical by nature.

Yup! e.g., I'm working on a message filter class -- it's something like a
killfile (I think) but based upon any kind of message content, using regexps
set by the user.

I thought the message scores would be in a message header, but it appears that
it's stored elsewhere. :-/
