MediaUtil is a free 100% Java Jpeg/Exif lossless image transformation library (LLJTran) for doing different types of rotations, transformations, and cropping all of which are lossless. Another function of the library is extraction and modifying of exif headers including exif thumbnail transformation. This library can be used for building different types of photo album applications or any other image manipulation applications where it is important to have a Java library capable of working with internal Jpeg/Exif formats and also providing lossless Jpeg transformations.

Mouse Gestures is an Open Source (LGPL) pure Java library for recognition and processing of mouse gestures. With Mouse Gestures you have a fast way to execute commands without using the keyboard, menus or toolbars. The user just holds down a mouse button and moves the mouse in a certain predefined way.

Pow! is a free integrated software development environment for use under Microsoft Windows. Presently Pow! can be used to develop Java and Oberon-2 programs. Pow! offers all the functions known from other programming environments: a multi-document-editor, embedded compile- and link calls, integrated make- and build-algorithms for project-management and online help for the environment Additionally Pow! supports special features like meta-projects (so-called templates) and integration of external software-tools. At the moment Pow! offers support for two languages: the Java compiler from Sun and the Oberon-2 compiler from Robinson Associates. The Oberon-2 compiler is fully integrated into the Pow! Distribution. The Java compiler has to be downloaded separately from Sun. Java Users Pow! is a comfortable environment around the command line oriented tools which come with Suns JDK. Compilation and program invocation are available at the touch of a button while the integrated editor allows to view and edit multiple source files at the same time. Oberon-2 Users Pow! offers a full implementation of the language Oberon-2. Pow! Is therefore the ideal choice for anyone who would like a native Windows based development environment for Oberon-2. Pow! also includes the Oberon-2 library OPAL, which makes it easy to create native Windows programs without getting into direct contact with the Windows API. Pow! is distributed with the full source code for - the 32 bit Oberon-2 compiler - the BOOSTED editor - the OPAL library - the Oberon runtime system - the start-up code which is used for Oberon applications. And by the way: POW! is available free of charge. It can be downloaded without any of that leave me your e-mail address first stuff, and there is no need to register for anything. There are FOUR files to download: file1 file2 file3 and file4. Run the first one.

The Java Runtime Environment (also known as the Java Runtime or JRE) consists of the Java Virtual Machine, the Java Core Classes, and supporting files.
