Well, okay, we should be totally fair.

What would be involved in having an RPG program call a Java program?

We know having an RPG program call another RPG program is pretty
much a piece of cake, and looks nothing like what had to be done in Java.

I would bet, though, that having an RPG program call a Java program wouldn't
be that difficult either.
