    Not all .exe files would have been installed on the systems.One can keep executables (.exe) but it does not mean that they are currently installed in the host system. I urge you to write code and when you are stuck , the experts will be glad to help.

      @OP: great fun; I can hardly wait to run it on my Solaris and Linux boxes.

      kind regards,

        You can be the first to write it and inevitably the first to run it.

          Nope, not me; I'm not going to design such a silly thing in Java. Better use C or
          C++ for that if an appropriate (hopefully system independent) API is available for
          the issue.

          kind regards,

          Jos
