I am currently a college student learning how to program Java. My professor introduced me to two programs which I use regularly. The first, is an IDE named Kawa, made by Macromedia who, as of Oct. 31, 2001, isn't selling it anymore. The other is a standard text editor called WinEdit. I prefer Kawa and suggest you try it(if you can get your hands on it), because of its usability. You have only to set the classpath once, and if you ever need to change it(for various reasons, one may need to), there is a really great user interface which aids you.
