appletviewer - The Java Applet Viewer

The appletviewer command allows you to run applets outside of the context of a World-Wide Web browser.

SYNOPSIS

appletviewer [ options ] urls ...

DESCRIPTION

The appletviewer command connects to the documents or resources designated by urls and displays each applet referenced by the documents in its own window. Note: if the documents referred to by urls do not reference any applets with the APPLET tag, appletviewer does nothing.

OPTIONS

See the java man page for a description of JIT issues or Irix-specific options.

Starts the applet viewer in the Java debugger, jdb, thus allowing you to debug the applets in the document.

-encoding    encoding name
Specify the input HTML file encoding name.

For example, the following command will run the applet viewer with a maximum heap size of 64MB:
% appletviewer -J-mx64m ...
