Hi Dirk.
Take a look at log4j (http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j). It's exceptionally
easy to use - fewer keystrokes than System.out.println - and you can leave
it in your code when you're done.
You can log to a file and tail the file, or log to System.{out,err}, or even
to a socket if you like. I don't remember the last time I typed System.out!
(Apart from just then...).
Cheers,
Dan/tastapod
