I would like to let readers know that Otherwise has released Jurtle 1.6.
Jurtle is an integrated programming environment designed for people who want
to learn programming in Java but may never have programmed before. It
provides a simple yet powerful programming editor coupled with built-in
facilities for compiling and running your programs. Unlike most other
development environments, no complex configuration is needed in order to use
Jurtle. Install it and immediately start running the examples and learning to
write them yourself. It can be used by an individual to learn Java on their
own, or in a classroom situation to teach java to a group.
Learning the full Java language can be a bit overwhelming, however Jurtle
provides a gentle introduction to Java. It comes with its own tutorial that
teaches you everything you need to know to begin writing basic Java programs.
Jurtle starts you out by having you write programs that move a "turtle" on
screen, leaving a trail that can create interesting and even beautiful
pictures.
(Java + Turtle = Jurtle)
Once the basics of Turtle Graphics programming are mastered, Jurtle can be
used to create simple GUI applications, web-based Java applets and text-based
console applications.
Jurtle also has built-in links to other more advanced tutorials on the web
such as Sun's highly acclaimed Java Tutorials. Jurtle has special features
that allow easy importing of the examples used by those and other tutorials.
