| Grab the standard Java 5.0 SDK from Sun's website. |

| Then just compile via the command-line. It doesn't get any simpler than that. |

If you download JSDK then you don't need any other compiler - it comes with the SDK. Unless this DrJava is an IDE? You should follow wtd's advice, and then later you can automate the process by having a macro set up to do it for you. At the moment though, just make your source file with a text editor, and 'javac sourcefile.java' it in the command line. All you really need is something like TextPad, Crimson Editor, or SciTE and the JSDK from the Java site.
