A quick web search on "Java", "X11" points me to
http://sourceforge.net/projects/escher/ .  Sounds interesting.

Yeah, that does sound interesting... It looks more like a Java interface to the X libraries. I can see how this would be extremely useful.

Unfortunately, what I am looking for (just peeking for time being), is the existence of a VM that supports this functionality, like the *nix versions do. It would be neat to run the java VM with a flag that used the X protocol instead.

Want in one hand, and shit in annother... see which fills up quicker.
