Question

Is it hard to do the following with the Java? First I need to generate a window with a text field (no buttons, nothing, just a text field). Than, when a user types a symbol in the text filed, program immediately stores information about this in a file (which symbol was typed and when). That's it.

Answer 1

So you should read something about JFrame and JTextField and after (Add)ActionListeners (function in JTextField) in java and File Streams like FileInputStream and FileOutputStream. It's very easy !
