Joe's Java Finger

This file may be included, only along with this documentation, on CD-ROM collections.
What is it?
This is a simple client to the Finger protocol.
It is an entirely free standing double-clickable application.
Why's it so ugly?
It was written in Java with tools from the JDK from Sun.
What's it need to run?
It requires that you have Java installed.
MacJDK 1.0.2 can be found at http://java.sun.com/
or see below for modifying the program so it uses Apple's
java class database or Netscape's or whatever...
How do I use it?
Just double-click it, enter an address (try mine: cvoss@sn.no) and
press the Query button.
What's it cost?
An e-mail message to me. Don't have to say anything interesting,
just let me know you've tried it. If you have any Java apps, send 'em to me.
Even corny stupid ones.
What if I don't want to use Sun's 1.9MB of java cuz I already have 1.8MB of
Apple's Mac Java Runtime or 1.5MB of Netscape's Java installed?
Maybe if you changed STR resource #1 from:
./lib/JoesFinger.zip:/$INSTALLATION_CLAS/JDK-1.0.2
to:
./lib/JoesFinger.zip:/Your HD/System Folder/Extensions/... blah, blah.../MRJClasses
ie: the path to your MJR libraries "MRJClasses" file.
Or specify the path to your Netscape "java_30" or "moz3_0.zip" file or
whatever java class database you want to use...
just maybe it'll work. If you get the paths right it will.
