I'm no Java whiz either (my son is the programmer, not me), but my best
guess is that you need to update your Java Runtime version. The program was
compiled on a computer with JRE 1.6.0, so you probably need that version.
The Windows .exe has run fine on all 5 computers I've tested it on, and all
are at JRE 1.6.0. The .jar ran fine on the Ubuntu 8.04 ("Hardy Heron") box
I tested it on, but I did not check the Java version on that machine.
In Windows, you can check your JRE version clicking the Java icon in Control
Panel, or by typing
java -version
on the command line.

Hi George,
I'm kind of dense when it comes to Java applications, but I can't get either
version to run. The Windows version pops up an error box saying "Could not
find main class. Program will exit.", and the Linux (cross-platform) version
says all this stuff, below. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Greg KO6TH
