Description andy redman CLA 2004-07-14 05:27:54 EDT 
Within the java editor, if a single equals sign is used in a comparison rather 
than a double, e.g.

		if (args.length=1)
		{

rather than

		if (args.length==1)
		{

Then a null pointer exception occurs when keying ctrl-s.

other errors occur when keying ctrl-c etc.

    The command for the key you pressed failed
