Decompilers exist, but you'd have to google around (for "java decompiler"),
download one, install it, spend some time getting familiar with it, etc.
And after you were done, you'd have only the .java files - you'd still have
to recreate the IDE project, ant file, or whatever other build environment
you used for it.

You'd be just as well off doing the four-hour rewrite, IMHO.

Took 45 mins with Jad. Very obvious command line interface (jad
*.class) and then just some file manipulation to move it back to the
right location.... Since I don't use an IDE it was probably easier
then typical
