Emacs with Java on XP

Cygwin will allow you to run it, and other Linux apps.

Oh yeah?! I'm trying to learn OCAML with flipping switches on an Altair. It's not going well either.

why would you do that?

Do you mean use Emacs as an IDE? If not, open file with Emacs, write your code, save your file, then (I don't use java but I'm guessing it's something like this)

> java savedfile

If you are going to use Emacs as an IDE someone else will have to help but I would think one of the dedicated java IDEs would maybe be a bit better for that, or at least easier to use.

(Unless the problem was getting Emacs to run...I don't think we got the question to be honest.)

C-x C-s, Alt-Tab to command window, 'javac myfile.java'.
