Rick,
Thanks. I've downloaded the bin file. I'm a little troubled by the
installation instructions:
3) Change to the directory in which you want to install. Type:
cd <directory path name>
For example, to install the software in the /usr/java/ directory, Type:
cd /usr/java/
QUESTION: Where is the standard place to install this software? It
seems to me that I should not just invent /usr/java as it won't be in
my path. Where did you put it?
Thanks,
Mark
