Installation

The compiled software can be downloaded from Download page. As the software is written in Java, the compiled code runs on most platforms. The software consists of a single jar file openopal.jar.

After downloading, start OpenOpal with either:

• double clicking on the jar (this is simple, however, not activated on all plattforms and console output may not be seen).
• open a Linux shell or Windows Command Line and enter one of the following two command in the same directory as file openopal.jar was downloaded (Windows often requires the latter command).

$ java -jar openopal.jar  

$ java -classpath openopal.jar org.openopal.core.OpenOpal

• to see additional command line options enter

$ java -jar openopal.jar -help
