Hi Victor:

Not sure why you want to extract the classes from visad.jar.  However, let's 
say that your directory tree looks like this:

/src/visad/
/src/edu/
/src/ucar/
/src/visad/examples/    <-- should be where you put the examples

In otherwords, you extracted the contents of the visad.jar file while you were 
"in" the /src/ directory.  In this case, your CLASSPATH need contain only this:

CLASSPATH=./:/src

Java versions > 1.3.1 find their own environment, so you don't need to have 
any of that in the CLASSPATH.  Plus, the Java3D is placed under the JRE so you 
don't need to point there, either.

If you were just using the visad.jar file without changes, you can just put it 
into your CLASSPATH, as in:

CLASSPATH=./:/path-to-jars/visad.jar

Both the compiler and runtime will then find all the visad classes in the JAR 
file.

Hope that helps.
