Pb with Java >9 on MAC OS

[EmmanuelADAM]

On MacOs, with Java > 9 (I have the issue with Java 10), launching Touist by double-clicking on the Jar File doesn't work.
From a terminal (java -jar touist.jar), I have this error
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/apple/eawt/OpenFilesHandler
This is due to the fact that some java classes specific to apple have been removed since java version >9.
To launch touist on Mac, I use :
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMhines/jdk1.8.0_152.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java -jar touist.jar
and it works !

Well received! I'll take a look

I reproduced the bug, you were right! The eawt classes were removed from Java 9. I think there it has been replaced by a more platform independent thing (I began writing a fix for this in PR #301, more specifically a147945).

So for now TouIST.jar isn't compatible with Java 9 (I'll write a notice on the README) but I'll try to finish the PR asap!

Update: I'm so sorry about the terrible experience with Java 9; maintaining the Java GUI is a pain and is getting harder and harder 😒 I want to drop it...
