Hello again,

Ah nevermind, I decieded to try using the command line to run the code
and it worked :D

I guess that must have just been a BlueJ issue.

No, sounds like a version issue.

Arrays as arguments can be passed as (String... args) == (String[] args)
Just the former can be called as (myStr1, myStr2, my Str3) as opposed to
(String[] {myStr1, myStr2, my Str3}). So just a bit of syntactic sugar, as
they say.
The former is only availble from 1.5+

The other problem about the contentPane, is as I mentioned before. As of
version 1.4 they removed the need to explicity get the content pane to add
to, and did it behind the scenes in the JFrames add() method.

So both issues are version releated, so BlueJ is using a different version
than that on the command path.
I think you need to configure BlueJ a bit...


Now time to find out how to use keyboard input and update the graphics
on screen.
