what is the simplest way of having a signed applet?

My applet wants to list the local files and directories
(using JFileChooser),
so I thought I should sign the applet.

I use this to sign my applet:

javac SimplePaint.java
jar cvf SimplePaint.jar SimplePaint.class
keytool -delete -alias SimplePaint
keytool -genkey -alias SimplePaint -validity 365
jarsigner SimplePaint.jar SimplePaint

Is there a faster way to do it? I don't want to go through the questions each time.
Thanks!!

>javac SimplePaint.java
>jar cvf SimplePaint.jar SimplePaint.class

the following two steps are unnecessary. Just create a certificate
once and for all and keep using it. See
http://mindprod.com/jgloss/keytool.html

>keytool -delete -alias SimplePaint
>keytool -genkey -alias SimplePaint -validity 365

>jarsigner SimplePaint.jar SimplePaint

you can use set parameters to avoid typing the password every time.

here is what I typically use in a bat file.

jarsigner -storepass %jarsignerpassword %package%.jar cmprsacert
