OK, I downloaded sun's java sdk 1.3.1_01, and tried again.

The registry file is exactly as I got it out of the box, except for the
following 2 lines:
   python.jythonc.compiler = c://jdk1.3.1_01/bin/java.exe
   python.path = c:\\jython\\lib


Again, my little test program works with jython.  I then tried the
following:
  jythonc  test.py
I got errors again.  Here they are:
  1042:PWORK:~$ jythonc test.py
  processing test

  Required packages:

  Creating adapters:

  Creating .java files:
    test module

  Compiling .java to .class...
  Compiling with args: ['c://jdk1.3.1_01/bin/java.exe', '-classpath',

  1  java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: /\jpywork\test/java
  Exception in thread "main"
  ERROR DURING JAVA COMPILATION... EXITING
  1043:PWORK:~$

I then tried something from the documentation that I didn't understand:
  jython test.class test.py
This ran the script, and created a file test$py.class.  It also gave me an
erorr "Could not find class: test.class"

I don't think that it worked, because when I run
  java -cp . test\$py.class
I get a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError.

What is my next step to getting things working?
