For a significant part of BSCW's user interface there is an alternative to the HTML-based pages: JBrowser. It

• presents folder pages in a style similar to the Windows File Explorer;
• lets you trigger all BSCW Actions that you may perform on an object;
• allows you to change object names, descriptions and the messages of notes by editing them in one of the windows.

JBrowser is a Java Applet that is downloaded once and installed with the Web browser you use. It requires a Web browser that supports Java 1.1 and the installation of Java Applets (e.g. Netscape 4.7x or Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.x or 5.x).
