I found the above explanation most helpful. However, on my Win95 machine
with the CLASSPATH environment variable set to .;C:\ javac found my package
when my default directory was C:\ but not when my default directory was not C:\
I assume that the C:\ in the CLASSPATH environment variable is not working.
Also I have another question. The documentation states that a package may
only contain one public class or one public interface. If this is correct,
and a package maps to a directory, do I have to store each public class and
each public interface in a separate directory?
Many thanks,
Bruce Raggett.
