You know... sometimes I'm just not paying any attention at all. What has
happened to me?!?
A Java xlauncher sounds fine to me, for now. I'd eventually prefer that it
be written in C or C++.
How large are the Java runtimes for Cygwin? I'm sure we'll get complains
along the lines of, ``before I had to install 100 MB for Cygwin/XFree86, now
I have to install XX MB more for the xlauncher program, blah''. So I'm not
really excited about sticking with Java forever.
Feeling like an idiot,
Harold
