of other jar files needed by Jet

used by Jet
- props
- a directory of
configuration (property) files for Jet
- win
- a directory with a batch
file to run Jet under Windows
- unix
- a directory with a shell
script to run Jet under Unix or Linux
-
create your own configuration or data files
as necessary
-
to run under Windows, go to the win folder, open 'Jet',
and, when prompted, select the configuration file you want
-
to run under Unix/Linux, go to the unix folder and run jet props/config-file
The operation of Jet is controlled by the Jet.properties
file and through the console.
Jet can also be used as part of another
application
through the JET API.
