Jipe - Running/Compiling Documents 

Jipe can now open,edit,compile and run documents from any directory.
The default setting are designed to enable a user to edit,save,compile and test files which are are all stored within the same directory, and using javac as the default compiler tool.

All the options in the execute menu act upon the current document. The only exception to this rule is when a project is open, and all the relevant project details have been entered to override it.

You can set different classpaths and output directories using Options - Java Options and then click on the paths tab. Again if you set any of these, then they override the defaults.
This feature is useful for people who are working on documents that might be stored in different directories, or where external packages might need to be accessed.

Finally, for even greater flexibility, users can run their own scripts from within Jipe to perform more awkward tasks that Jipe might be finding a bit to difficult to handle.

All input and output from running,compiling documents etc will appear in the console window which appears underneath the editor window.
