The bytecode package you'll currently have to get from
CVS.  See:

   http://cvs.open-bio.org/

for instructions, then check out the `bytecode' module from
the biojava CVS repository.  (I can build a tar.gz source distribution
if there's any demand, but so far I don't think anyone has asked...)


xerces.jar:  http://xml.apache.org/

jakarta-regexp.jar:  http://jakarta.apache.org/


Not sure about htmlparser.jar.  Can anyone remember?  Do
we still use it for anything?

Note that the requirements for both xerces and jakarta-regexp
will be dropped in the next BioJava release.  XML parser and
regular expression functionality are available in java 1.4
without needing 3rd party libraries.
