Re: extracting certain files from a jar

This is but one reason why to give up on GUI interaction with the
OS, tools, java etc.  The GUI paradym for these use cases is 
defective.  It's workable for a specific purpose application.  It's
razor limited scope is too limiting for everything else.

I todate have little need for debugging so haven't been forced into
using an IDE even ocassionally and find that my command line
methods are extremely fast and mouseless.   Few seconds are 
wasted poping open a jar and asking for only the files I want
etc on the command line.  Try it???

How about this fast and Ant'less make script for every src in this pkg:

javac `find . -name \*java -print`

:/

BTW, the only way to make all MS OS's tolerable on the command line
IMHO is the cygwin set of Unix tools for win32.   See:
http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin/ 

Cygwin provides unlimited flexibility and power of the unix command line
to the hobbled and quite misserable MS OS desktop.  :))))

Just another biased thought...
