Java editor
Does anyone have any suggestions on a good Java editor for Windows besides notepad? I love notepad, but I'd like something that adds color to the text to make debugging a little easier. I'll probably just download Forte' (whenever I actually get this lousy DSL), but I was kinda hoping someone knows of something that's already built into Windows that will do that, or something downloadable that's smaller in file size than Forte' (Forte's is about 30mb).

Code Warrior. It is a front end for Java made by MetroWerks. It is a VB style front end that allows the programmer to debug in a VB type fashion. You still have to put the code in using Notepad, but CodeWarrior will do the rest. <a href="http://www.metrowerks.com"" target="_blank">Click here</a> to get started with CodeWarrior.

While code warrior is a good program (I have used it for c++), but I would always recommend BlueJ, even over jbuilder(not fond of). Best thing about it is that it is free.
I would recommend getting the 1.12 version since it is much faster then the latest version.
Try this link, it is 1.11 but still just as good:

By the way,the size of bluej is under 2 megs.
It has a good gui layout and I find its debugging features good.
It is a java complier written in java, It does crash from time to time during the startup of the program, but once the program is running I have never had problems.
So you dont have the risk of losing code.
