kdoc is a perl application rather than C++, but it uses 'configure.in' and 
'Makefile.in' to build and install, I adapted the same configure files to 
install kalyptus bindings utility. The gilt install could put a shell script 
with 'java <app path>/KSimpleBrowser' in the kde bin directory, which would 
start the app in the apps/share directory.

eg /opt/kde3/bin/gilt.sh sets up a classpath including 
/opt/kde3/apps/share/gilt/gilt.jar and calls 'java KSimpleBrowser'

I don't know how it works - a lot of the automake/autoconf stuff seems 'black 
magic' to me. But I've attached the kalyptus Makefile.in and configure.in - I 
think we need a standard install script like that for java apps, so that 
people can just './configure ; make ; make install' as usual.

Looks pretty neat! I'm still rebuilding my system after a gcc/gcj 3.1 test, 
I'll try it out as soon as I can..

I like the line 'All below this line is obsolete' refering to the previous 
Swing version. How do you think the code compares?
