Yes it actually is. I put everything I need in the jre/lib/ext dir to=20
avoid classpath problems. Is there a side effect of putting jython in=20
this directory? I cannot see why putting the jython.jar in this=20
directory would prevent to load classpath items physically located=20
elsewhere?

Well I did not put anything else than the program. The jython.jar seems=20=

to be automatically loaded and processes the classpath items. I think=20
even if the -cp option is specified the jvm goes looking into the=20
/jre/lib/ext. This is strange but understandable...maybe putting=20
everything in the ext directory is not that a good idea... I will try by=20=

moving the jython.jar and see what happens...
