the samples will only work if you use appletviewer/hotjava.
in netscape 3.x, file IO is not supported.

the only way to do file IO in netscape 3.x is if your
class is local, and you write a DLL to perform the IO using
native methods. your class must call setScopePermission before
loading the library.
