I've been thinking to your reply, so i will try harder to explain
myself.
3 years ago, Intermetrics released a product called Appletmagic if i
remember well.
With my favorite browser (OS/2 Web Explorer) i clicked on a page where
the applet "Conways game of life" was executed. Easy and fun.
Let's say that the applet was written in Ada95, compiled to Java
bytecode and executed inside the OS/2 JVM. From a technical point of
view it is quite impressive.
But don't you think there's something wrong?
The applet source code was available, the GNAT compiler for OS/2 was
available, linker etc etc...
Cordially,
