Installation

To install AppletEase on Windows follow these steps:

  1. you need a Java Virtual Machine version 1.1.6.
    We suggest you Sun's JRE1.1.6 and we will guide you now throught its installation (if you instead use other Java Virtual Machines adapt the 'AppletEase.bat' file). To test if you already have it on you computer open a Dos window and type 'jre'. Check that jre responds and that it is version 1.1.6. If you need to install it you can download it from http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.1/jre/index.html. Then follow its installation instruction (let its installation modify your autoexec.bat file). Restart your computer!
  2. so now you have a Java Virtual Machine running. At this point please test proper installation of JRE1.1.6, open a Dos window, type 'jre' and check that the program actually runs - version 1.1.6;
  3. now decompress our downloadable AppletEase zipped file (by default it decompresses in a directory named AppletEase, that I suggest you let start from the root EG: c:\AppletEase)

To install AppletEase on Unix follow the same steps for the Windows installation, but get a Java Virtual Machine for Unix platform.

If you experience any problem please contact us.

Now you are ready to launch AppletEase for the first time!
