By TomyLobo:

a large complex contraption like worldedit isnt the ideal subject for a first look at java. there is so much stuff that can go wrong, so many advanced concepts you might misinterpret, so many bad habits and coding conventions that you could misinterpret as the only way to do things

pick something smaller
like hello world :)
or a text editor
