Re: using an IDE other than NetBeans for Java

If you just want to modify or write a few lines of code and compile it along with other pre-existing code; just use any non-WYSIWYG editor, and the command line syntax that is explained in the Windows or Linux sections of this tutorial. http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutor...ava/index.html

IDEs are fine things to use (I use NetBeans); but they are certainly not required.

I don't absolutely need an IDE, but how would you recommend getting the code onto the cRio in a format that it'll run?
