is there a way to get these to make just a java and class file rather than forcing you to make all these unnecessary "project" files and folders?

no. that is why you use editors vs IDE's.. jcreator pro/lite is very much like an editor.. then there's always the powerful jedit. its a mighty editor. (but it has one drawback,,, the antialiasing is not pretty.. but not bad either... just wierd)

ah i see. Well then, let me rephrase my question. Are there any editors available that feature code completion?

jeez www.jedit.org (free)

EDIT: you require a plugin (which u download through the app it self) for code-completion. it does a fairly ok job. i prefer eclipse though.
