| 12 | How to get Java Runtime Environment |
|---|
| 13 | ----------------------------------- |
|---|
| 14 | You need JRE Version 1.6 (also called Java6), or later. |
|---|
| 15 | |
|---|
| 16 | Microsoft Windows users should visit |
|---|
| 17 | http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/index.html |
|---|
| 18 | and download the latest Java6 executable for Windows systems. |

| 25 | How to launch |
|---|
| 26 | ------------- |
|---|
| 27 | Microsoft Windows users launch by double-clicking on the .jar file. |
|---|
| 28 | If this does not work, open a command shell and type |
|---|
| 29 | "java -jar josm-latest.jar" in the directory that holds the file. (Please |
|---|
| 30 | replace josm-latest.jar with the name of your .jar file, if you aren't using |
|---|
| 31 | the latest version.) |
|---|
| 32 | |
|---|
| 33 | Under Linux, open a shell, go to the file directory and type |
|---|
| 34 | "java -jar josm-latest.jar" to launch. If this does not work, try to set |
|---|
| 35 | your JAVA_HOME variable to the java executable location (the root location, |
|---|
| 36 | not the bin). |
|---|
| 37 | |
|---|
| 38 | MacOS users just click on the .jar file icon. |
