Wassup let's you know what's up with your Java environment.
It will tell you the System Properties, as many as the
Security system will let you peek at. This includes such
things as which JVM is running, which version of Java, which
vendor. It may be run as either an applet or an application.
When you run Wassup as an application it shows you
considerably more information. The Java sandbox considers it
a security risk to reveal that information to an Applet. As
an application, you can see all the possible System
Properties. When you run as an unsigned Applet, your view is
much more limited. When you run as an unsigned Applet, your
view is much more limited. If you OK the Java sandbox
security override, it will let you view the restricted
properties.
To install, Extract the zip download with WinZip, available from
http://www.winzip.com (or similar unzip utility) into any
directory you please, often C:\ -- ticking off the "user
folder names" option. To run as an application, type:
java.exe -jar C:\com\mindprod\wassup\wassup.jar
adjusting as necessary to account for where the jar file is.
Why the black man icon?  Wassup in black slang means "what's
up, give me information about what is going on."
