Re: I'm looking for help learning Java on OS X

Well not exactly what you're looking for, but when I needed to get started in Java for the first time (a year ago) I found "On to Java 2" by Patrick Henry Winston and Sundar Narasimhan (Addison Wesley) a good start for me. It assumes you understand programming, but are new to Java. All you need to do the examples is a text editor and the command line, so it is truly platform independent, and relies on no GUI tools or platform-specific stuff.

I am having a hard time trying to find information on learning Java on Mac
OS-X. All the books and websites that I find seem to be geared towards
learning Java on the Windows platform, and the 3Mac OS-X Java2 sites are
setup for people that already know Java. I9m looking for something (book,
websites, articles, etc...) that I can use with a beginning Java programming
book to help me make the examples in the books work on Mac OS-X . Any help
would be greatly appreciated,

Use Mac OS X's Terminal application, located in /Applications/Utilities.
It's the same as any other Unix-shell (csh or tcsh, not sh or bash). That
is, commands like this work:
javac HollowWord.java
java -cp . HollowWord

and even:
man java
man javac
apropos java
