I have a three file app that I downloaded from PlanetSourceCode (from
the complete-application-list, ChartGen, a java app that makes simple
bar charts). I want to play with them in NetBeans. I can load and open
and edit them.
Classes in file A are flagged as "can't find symbol" in file B, and so on.
The readme with these files says to compile them in a certain order
(ChartColorScheme.java, Chart.java, TestChart.java). The compile tool is
grayed out.
I think I need to create a project. Actually I did (Java|Java
Application - no main class since one is in the 'compile last and run'
file, per the readme). But it hasn't helped. The files don't show in the
projects or files pane, and I can't find a way to add files to project.
I've poked around in the help files, but I guess I'm not using the right
magic incantation.
Where do I look for help with this?

PS
I just tried an experiment - debugging the project.
It says 'no main class is set'.
There is a main class, in the file (TestChart.java) that readme says to run.
public static void main(String[] args)
{
TestIt test = new TestIt();
}
(Class TestIt() follows in the same file.)
The 'debug file' tool is grayed out.

I created a new project, adding a main class this time. Adjusted it to
match the one already there. Now I get a 'runtime exception', so no help.
