6 icedtea-web provides a Free Software web browser plugin running applets
7 written in the Java programming language and an implementation of Java
8 Web Start, originally based on the NetX project.
9
10 NetX allows Java applets and applications to be downloaded over the
11 network, cached, and (by default) run in a secure sandbox environment.
12 Subsequent runs of the applet download the latest version automati‐
13 cally. Update and security settings, among others, can be set using the
14 itw-settings command.
15 icedtea-web also includes a plugin to enable Java applets
16 (http://www.java.com/en/download/testjava.jsp) within web browsers.
