I don't have a java IDE and am using just notepad for my java files. I tried to use notepad to view the source files included with the jsdk(i.e. java.util.Hashtable.java), but they are difficult to read. Any ideas on what else I can use to view these files.
Thanks.

A lot of JavaRanchers use TextPad. It's kind of a cross between a full fledged IDE and a plain text editor like notepad. It has syntax highlighting, regex searching and many other features. You can also compile and run right from TextPad. You can download it here.

Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius - and a lot of courage - to move in the opposite direction. - Ernst F. Schumacher
