False. In java there's precious little difference between programs and binaries; they're often both jar files where the program simply has a class hiding somewhere with a main() method. As an example, jython is presented as a single jar (jython.jar). This contains a class with main() that is called by /usr/bin/jython. However, the same jar - the same set of classes - can be used as a library by programs that want to have embedded scripting (if you have jython-doc installed you can see the API). Ben.
