actionparsnip proposed the following answer:
I can't see any additional infor to give...
Install java from repo or from java.com
then go to http://spaz.ca/cronometer/ and download the app
you then need to make a small script in
<something>/Contents/Resources/Java/ which will be in the folder you
extracted the file you downloaded, to. I have no way at all of knowing
the exact folder locations so you will have to apply fuzzy logic and
substitute <something> with te folder location of the data on your
system.
the script will read:
#!/bin/sh
java -cp cronometer.jar:jcommon-1.0.10.jar:jfreechart-1.0.6.jar:swingx-0.9.3.jar:cronometer.jar:usda_sr21.jar:crdb_003.jar:docs.jar ca.spaz.cron.CRONOMETER
Save the script as anything you like, something like startcronometer.sh is good, just don't have spaces
you will need to chmod +x it so that it is executable. In my example
this would be:
chmod +x startcronometer.sh
(with your terminal in the pwd of <something>/Contents/Resources/Java/)
you can then run the script and the thing will run
I haven't done this. I am simply expanding on the instructions you have
pasted.
