OK.

I will try to get some of my compiler course students to make a term project, out of it. It should be fun for them, and they will get a wide community of testers. ;-)

Actually, there are a few problems with it.  We'd like a blank line
before `package' (we can't use header insertion due to copyright
years), and jalopy doesn't support that.  Also I think it doesn't
handle indentation of method bodies the way we would like.  Or was it
`if' statement bodies?  I submitted a couple jalopy bug reports a few
months ago...

Of course we could just hack these features and have a "classpath
only" fork of jalopy.

I've attached the "GNU.jalopy" config file I made, way back.  It
should come pretty close to our style.  But not close enough to use
:-(
