Anyone use Java?

[RedexRobB]

I need to learn this language for a project ive been given and im having a right old time of it trying to get a compiler working.

Ive gone for JEdit, and ive got some example programs but no idea how to compile them. Cant find the button anywhere. Ive got the latest JDK, and im assuming i need to do something with that and jedit to get the compiler to work? IVe registered with the jedit support forum but takes upto 24hours to get confirmation email.

Any help appreciated.
