I recommend Geany[1] to students learning Java for the same reason. Many students used to try to use Eclipse, but would get bogged down in Eclipse' notion of a "project" and other details that were unrelated to the simple tasks they were trying to do. Geany is much easier for them to get started with, and still provides a graphical way to run and debug code.
