Thanks. This is the first time I have distributed a *.jar I will try again.
Since the source is there it should be possible to compile it (and I'd be
grateful for any reports of compilation problems).

You have to RIGHT click (or doubleLeftClick) on a node, because
singleLeft-clicking seems to be bound to opening the tree. The right-click
has to be fairly quick (i.e. a 'click' rather than a mouseUp). I am still
learning about Swing.
I had hoped to have some clickable icons on each node (as JUMBO1 has). The
first time I did this with Swing it worked beautifully (with
swing.tree.TreeCellRenderer). But then one day it stopped working and I
haven't been able to find out why. I'd be *delighted* if someone else could
give me some pointers. That is why I can't change the font, icons, etc in
the Tree.
