drawString() and paint() are methods and not classes, so the class
browser won't show them.  You would have to browse from the object
that holds these calls (in this case, that would be Applet())

Or, you could do Search | Search Sourcepath and find all the places
that paint() is use/overridden in Java and then try to figure out
which one of those was in scope in your code.

If you see something that looks like an opinion up there,
it's mine and mine alone.

Mail sent to me from the newsgroups won't bounce but will
be ignored.  If I have time, I'll respond, but you  have
a better chance if you confine your posts to the newsgroups
