Actually, I do regularly use both classpath and -jar with java because
I'm running a .jar file that does not contain "the world".  OTOH, this
is a development environment rather than a production environment, so
theoretically I could just shove everything into the .jar file -- but I
don't because that adds more time to the compile/link/jarjarjar cycle.
