java setup

[airrazor]

Hi everyone,

I have a couple of questions.

1) set it up so that you can run java and javac from any directory? How do you do it? Where do you do it? A step by step would be appreciated.

2) I have written small java programs in JCreator. Has anyone used this before? You can create a workspace and a project. So when you create classes as part of the package you have access to them. If I wanted to compile and run them from the command line would I be able to? Would I have to put them into a package or is it enough simply to have them all in the same directory?

I'm really lost here
