Fixed permissions in Mac dmg file

Changes:

• Improved build messages

See previous release for instructions.

Lots of new features

Requires Java 5 and up, so it works on old machines and new machines.

Mac (10.4 and up)

1. Mount .dmg file.
2. Copy Rune.app to Application folder.

Windows

Still working on the installer.
To run use one of these options:

1. Make sure Java is installed. Any version will work.
   a. For Intel/AMD you can get it from https://java.sun.com
   a. For ARM you can get it from https://www.microsoft.com/openjdk
2. Run this from the command line: java -jar rune.jar

Linux, BSD, Solaris, OpenIndiana

1. Install some version of openjdk. Any version available will work.
2. Run this from the command line: java -jar rune.jar

OS/2

1. Install Java 6 from https://trac.netlabs.org/java
2. Run Rune from the command line: java -jar rune.jarchines and new machines.

Haiku

Not everything works right. For example, only one file can be opened. I'm not sure it this is caused by bugs in the Haiku Java port, or bugs in Rune that can't be seen on other platforms. I will try to look into it when I have time. There are also issues with memory that require some extra parameters on the Java command line. So it is necessary to create a script to start up Rune.

1. Install any available version of openjdk from HaikuDepot.
2. Create a script like the following, replacing the value of JAVA_HOME with your version of Java:

UI Updates

Zoom and other GUI improvements.

Works with Java 1.5 and above

This version can run in Java 1.5. I will get it back to 1.4 eventually. This is good enough for now. Some unnecessary 3rd party jars were removed. Also see previous release notes.

Works but some missing functionality

This is guaranteed to consume all your memory or your money back. Ha ha. It's not really that bad, but the Java process does consume about 400 MiB. You can unzip the zip file to someplace like /opt or C:\Program Files. Then run the rune shell script or rune.js (for Windows), as appropriate.

Java 7 is required to run it because I built it with a recent version of Java. But, it is possible, if it is compiled under Java 1.4 that it will run with Java 1.4. I will do that later.

Beta release

First beta release. Some features are still being implemented but many things work.

In Windows, you can double click the hreodwrit.jar file to run it. Otherwise it can be run from the command line as follows:

java -jar hreodwrit.jar [file1 file2 ...]

Java version 1.4 or greater is the only requirement.
