Oh yeah I forgot to post this before.
I wouldn't use any complext IDE untill you start understanding the basic
levels of Java. My recomendation is to use a simple java editor (like
JEdit) and go with that.
I have seen to many young coders not know the simple stuff (like
classpaths), not to mention that IDEs can overwhelm you with stuff.
What kind of errors do you get in your program that you are running by
the way?
