-Compiling the engine is Really Hard.  Unless you're planning on

-compile it yourself!

 There are pre-built, digitally signed binaries on http://dist.xwt.org/
 for every supported platform.  Please consider using those unless

+to get XWT to build.

 
 Requirements:
 
 Requirements:

-    - jdk 1.4+
+    - jdk 1.3+

     - the standard set of POSIX utilities (wc, grep, find, make, etc)
 
     - the standard set of POSIX utilities (wc, grep, find, make, etc)
 

-Automatically-Downloaded components:
-    - gcj 3.3+
-    - binutils 2.13+
-    * If you already have a suitably configured gcj 3.3 and binutils
-      2.13+ you can set "gcc_path" to point at its installation
-      location; otherwise the Makefile will download, configure,
-      compile, and install gcc and binutils in xwt/gcc/
-
-Optional components:
-    - fastjar (builds archives faster)
-    - jikes 1.18 (makes builds go much faster)
-    * If jikes is in your $PATH, the Makefile will find and use it.
-      Otherwise you can type 'make jikes' to download and build jikes.
