I downloaded j2sdk-1_3_0-linux.rpm (25 megabytes) from Sun.  I installed it.
I do a search with `find / -name swing.jar' and it's not anywhere.  Also I've
searched for examples of a correct $CLASSPATH line since if I do
`set | grep CLASSPATH' I get nothing.

The three lines in the .java file that maybe are hints as to what I don't
have are:
	import java.awt.*;
	import java.awt.event.*;
	import javax.swing.*;
Does this mean that I should have a file somewhere named javax.swing.*
and if so, wasn't it in the j2sdk?  I need this to work.
