Package Problem

Question

I'm new to Java and am self teaching myself. I have run into a problem that I can't figure out. I have the following code that works fine, however, when I add the package keyword the program does not compile and gives errors. The following code works without any hitches:
public class printMe {
void printThis(String s) {
  System.out.println(s);
class application {
public static void main(String[] args) {
  printMe pm = new printMe();
  pm.printThis("hello");
}Now if I add package to them as follows:
package intro;
public class printMe {
void printThis(String s) {
  System.out.println(s);
package intro;
class application {
public static void main(String[] args) {
  printMe pm = new printMe();
  pm.printThis("hello");
}I get the following error when I compile application
can not find symbol printMe in printMe class. Any help would be appreciated.

Well you're doing something wrong....
When I save this as Application.java
package intro;
public class Application {
public static void main(String[] args) {
  PrintMe pm = new PrintMe();
  pm.printThis("hello");
}and this as PrintMe.java
package intro;
public class PrintMe {
void printThis(String s) {
  System.out.println(s);
}both of those in an intro directory.
Then I go in the directory below and go
javac intro/Application.javait compiles just fine.
