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. |
