[Pljava-dev] Source code move to Git

Hi Bear,

I think examples like these are very valuable to the community. They are
candidates for inclusion in our example module (we already have such a
module). Would it be possible for you to provide them in the form of a
pull request?

Regarding the crypto stuff, also interesting. I'd love to see that too
as a (separate) pull request. What JDK version is required for it to run?

Regards,
Thomas Hallgren
