How do I find the objects near me? Is there a piece of wall?

I am trying to translate a Karel exercise into an Alice3/Java world, and I need to have some way of testing for obstruction/looking for markers. Netbeans code completion gives me the names of methods that I might call, but unfortunately no javadoc, and it has been rather slow going trying to discover methods that way. Is that javadoc available somewhere?

Also, a really silly question. Is there a piece of wall in the gallery? I couldn't seem to find one. With Java, it is an easy matter to write a loop that places a bunch of pieces together, so I am much more interested in building blocks than a whole house or maze.

Thanks,

Cay
