+This is jikes, a java source to byte-code compiler. The compiler has been
+made available by IBM under their open-source license, please see:
+
+WWW: http://oss.software.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/jikes/project/
+
+for details. To operate, the CLASSPATH environment variable must typically
+be set to a colon-delimited list of source directories, class directories,
+or zip files. Note that jikes will complain if a non-existant directory or
+file is specified in CLASSPATH.
