SYNOPSIS

12       appletviewer [ options ] urls ...
13

DESCRIPTION

15       The appletviewer command connects to the documents or resources  desig‐
16       nated  by  urls and displays each applet referenced by the documents in
17       its own window. Note: if the documents referred to by urls do not  ref‐
18       erence  any  applets  with  the  OBJECT,  EMBED,  or  APPLET  tag, then
19       appletviewer  does  nothing.  For  details  on  the  HTML   tags   that
20       appletviewer supports, see AppletViewer Tags @
21       http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/tools/appletview‐
22       ertags.html.
23
24       Note: The appletviewer requires encoded URLs according to the escaping
25       mechanism defined in RFC2396. Only encoded URLs are supported. However,
26       file names must be unencoded, as specified in RFC2396.

OPTIONS

29       -debug
30          Starts the applet viewer in the Java debugger, jdb, thus allowing
31          you to debug the applets in the document.
32
33       -encoding    encoding name
34          Specify the input HTML file encoding name.
35
36       -Jjavaoption
37          Passes through the string javaoption as a single argument to the
38          Java interpreter which runs the appletviewer. The argument should
39          not contain spaces. Multiple argument words must all begin with the
40          prefix -J, which is stripped. This is useful for adjusting the com‐
41          piler's execution environment or memory usage.
