        Samizdat Productions Releases JConfig 1.2

JConfig is a class library which supplements the core Java API. It
lets you work with files, web browsers, processes, file types, and
other system-level items in a much more advanced manner than that
provided by the standard Java class libraries. A list of JConfig's
features is given below.

JConfig 1.2 supports several new platforms, including:

  - Win95, Win98, and WinNT 
  - MacOS
  - Linux
  - most Unix systems

JConfig has also been run with JBuilder (1.1.6)
