I will be looking at Jarminal but I wanted to alert you to the Scala shell. You can get it at http://www.scala-lang.org. I have been using it as a Java scripting tool for over a year now and I like it a lot.

Mr. Faisal
I think it doesnt work with Java. it is a highly regulated lang. with dos and donts and there is no two ways about it. is either u do the right thing or forget about it.
As for J2EE u are even required to obey more rules strictly cos you are implementinting interfaces. that u can not dis obey and get a result. that is why Java is highly secured.

this is because when using Netbeans, the IDE starts many other resource consuming Applications like the Application servers and database servers. putting all of them together while working poses a serious multi tasking burden on the processor and hence, power consumption.

this KMPlayer you are talking about? does it work on a mac? never mind I will google it. But you seem to be very attached to it, Some people will agree with me that smart people don’t always think others are not as smart because they use a NOT-TOO-POPULAR movie player.

Yes, I agree with you !
Coding (and of course building, testing and deploying…) will take more resources than watching a movie or listening a music.
As far as i know, one of the reason behind this is heating!
because programming will take more resources it will keep the processor busy, hence will generate more heat and to cool it down CPU fan has to work much harder than in case of watching a movie…

Smart people use The KMPlayer to watch movies. It is far superior and uses less battery juice. Work Smart. Stop being so stupid.

That’s weird, I thought watching a movie would consume more energy…
I think the high consume come from the compiling process cause it use more the CPU…

Hi Guys,
exists no java api to get battey information?
It looks like a hack to parse output from another program.

So it is a good solution if no other way exists.
