The Java compiler wants bytestream files - I imagine QEdit has given you
fixed-length files instead.  I'm not sure if QEdit provides the ability
to save in bytestream format; if not you can use the tobyte utility to
convert the file to bytestream format before trying to compile it.

There may be other problems here as well, as the error message you
report isn't one I've seen before when passing javac an incorrect file
type - but I'd fix that first, and then see what happens.
