I'd like to have a java app where the main window is on top of other
applications even when it has lost focus (ie always on top). Is there an
easy way to do this, I presume there is a method relating to a frame.
Note: I'm using Java version 1.17 as I'm writing for Windows and Mac OS;
not professionly, purely for interest.

Also what would be the best way to distribute an application. I presume
that the classes can be wrapped in an archive but what about the java
runtime environment. Is this being distributed along with OSs or must a
user download this from SUN or Apple etc. When I've loaded my java
development software the JRE of course loads automatically with it.

Thanks in advance  
Ross
