I find it hard to believe that you have read five books about the language
and still think that "TextEdit.main( ).args" should work and don't know that
the keyword "public" is not "Public". I also think you should reread that
help in your "developmen t tool", and if it really says that, ditch it.
There's no way to do that. Period. End of story. Learn the language *before*
you start mangling it:


Then you can understand what you're mangling at least.
