##Introduction

This is a desktop Swing application which will recursively scan a directory and index a large number of jar files all at once. It then allows to explore individual jar files or search all jar files at the same time. It provides a number of views for resources: class - specific, shows all class information: interfaces, super class, methods, fields, as well as views for text, HTML, images.
