If you want to read and write XML encoded X3D Files via the java translators 
from Qiming Wang, you need to download the files from 
   http://ovrt.nist.gov/v2_x3d.html 
and extract them into the directories ./v2x3d and ./x3dv2
You also have to set the following environment variables

JAVA_PATH         path to the java executable e.g. C:\usr\java\bin\java
X3DV2_PATH        where x3d to vrml2 translator exist as %X3DV2_PATH%\x3dv2.jar
X3DV2_FILE        x3dv2.jar
V2X3D_PATH        where vrml2 to x3d translator exist as V2X3D_PATH\v2x3d_0.1.jar
V2X3D_FILE        v2x3d_0.1.jar

Cause of the extraordinary high portability of the M$Windows Operationssystems,
users of MSDOS based versions like M$Windows 95, M$Windows 98 and M$Windows 
Millenium Edition have to fight against unexpected opening windows boxes 
forcing the user to "press any key to continue" when using the translators, 
while users of M$Windows NT, M$Windows 2000 and following M$Windows 
Operationssystems should miss this wonderfull feature 8-)
