Almost. It's probably more use to most people than my javawrapper implementation is, I agree. When I wrote javawrapper, it was in the early days of Java and it was still common enough to just build a pile of .class files rather than a .jar file. I wrote javawrapper because I was fed up with concocting the correct syntax to get the Java interpreter to start with a given .class file. This still seems as though it could be useful in some situations. CCing the javatools maintainers; would it be possible to merge some of the functionality of http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~cjwatson/code/javawrapper/javawrapper-1.0.tar.gz into jarwrapper?
