Textpad Java Download

A: No. TextPad translates the .java files into .class files which can not be run by double-clicking them. Some IDE's (eg, NetBeans) will produce double-clickable .jar files, and there are programs which will package your Java files into a .exe file.
I compiled and ran a test Java code to see if everything got installed correctly. All seemed well until I happened to take a look at the folder containing my .java and .class files. I noticed that a bunch of batch files had populated that folder while I was messing around with my test code. I don't recall these appearing back when I was learning Java and using an older version of TextPad.
Look, there is an IDE called NetBeans in which you can edit, compile and run Java programs. This program is for editing in java. I've tried it on Ubuntu 11.10 without any complication for University homework and I have read that it runs natively on 12.04
To start a new program, you can type some introductory comments, then save the file. Once you save the file with the .java extension, TextPad invokes Java syntax coloring based on the configured settings. I like syntax coloring, although some may prefer not to use it. In this case, I borrowed one of Edo's examples from class.
I have been using textpad and Java for 3 months without trouble. We just got a new computer 64 bit Windows 7. I have downloaded Java and Textpad on the new computer but when I go to external tools to compile, the compile and run tools are missing. I have uninstalled and reinstalled, rebooted but they are still not there. Anyone know what to do? Thanks!
