Have a look at:

 http://www.swarm.org/csss-tutorial/frames.html

for a step-by-step Java tutorial.  Also, you can find a Java tutorial
which is more-or-less a translation of the Objective-C tutorial:

 http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/swarm/jtutorial/

This will be moved to savannh.gnu.org soon.

Ptplot is a Java-based library for graphs.  Some of our users have
built extensions to Swarm using it.
