STELLA supports Java 1.5, so you shouldn't have any problems running STELLA or PowerLoom under 1.5. Unfortunately, characters and strings are 8-bit only and don't support Unicode (this was inherited from the C/C++ char* datatype). Various internals of STELLA - particularly the reader - depend on this assumption. In the Java translation of STELLA, strings are represented by plain Java strings which do support Unicode, so, it might be possible to work around this restriction for certain STELLA/Java applications with a little bit of hand-coding in Java. Unfortunately #2, we have very limited resources to extend STELLA, so this restriction will not go away anytime soon/ever.
