jGnash 2.x requires that Java 6.0 is installed.

To Install:
1. Unzip all files into a directory of your choice leaving the directory structure unchanged.

To Run:
Simply type the following below at a command line
or double click on the jar or exe file in Windows.

java -jar jGnash2.jar

Linux Tips:

Some Linux distributions include GCJ or the OpenJDK preinstalled as the default
Java installation.

Install the Sun JRE or JDK to ensure best results and set it as the default JVM
if you have multiple flavors installed.

OSX Installation:

For OSX users, a minimum of OSX 10.5 is required unless you want to experiment
with the SoyLatte Java distribution.

1.  Copy the jGnash folder to /Applications.
2.  Open Script Editor.
3.  Create the following script:

try
        do shell script "/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/
1.6.0/Home/bin/java -classpath /Applications/jGnash/lib -jar /
Applications/jGnash/jgnash2.jar"
end try

4.  Save it as an Application called jGnash.app in /Applications/
jGnash

*** a default jGnash.app is included ***

NOTES:
There are known issues with OpenJDK and Java 7 development releases.

When upgrading from 1.x to 2.x, you will have to recreate your reminders.

See the integrated help for command line options.

Building jGnash:
SVN contains default projects for Netbeans and the Eclipse IDE's

If you want to build from a console, you should use the distbuild.xml file for best results.
The default ant build.xml is Netbeans specific.

Install that Ant build distribution and then try:
"ant -f distbuild.xml" to create the distribution zip file
"ant -f distbuild.xml run" to run jGnash from a console
