Thanks for the reply, i may look into jcg. Could be an interesting project in itself

I am using an alpha numeric screen, so this is a command line app, no gui toolkit needed. The computer wont be starting X at all, just booting, auto-logging in, and running my program.
Some good advice there though, thanks
