Go from a 10,000 ft view of the entire project down to any file or method.
Zeta Code is a ZUI.
Zeta Code is a way to view code as a graph.
It does not mean to replace traditional IDE's, but rather is
a different way to view and manipulate code.
It looks at a project holistically - including imports and dependencies
as top-level objects and breaks out of the ancient code-as-files metaphor.

First you need to compile using Maven.
mvn package
Unzip the zip-with-lib, then you can just run the resulting jar:
cd target/
unzip z-0.1-beta-3-zip-with-lib.zip
java -jar z-0.1-beta-3/z-0.1-beta-3.jar
This code is still in beta, so use with caution. It is not done.
