Legacy Java Runtime Required

Mac Users:
Install Apple's version of Java. You can get that at: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572. Installing this version of Java will not affect other Java installations. It will merely enable apps looking for Java in its usual place to find it.

If you have a Java SE 7 JRE installed on your system and JXEd fails to start, try using the --javahome switch from the command line:
From a command prompt, navigate to the JXEd install/bin folder and type:

JXEd --javahome path_to_JRE

Starting JXEd
Navigate to the bin directory of your install directory and execute the application appropriate for your operating system

Stopping JXEd
Choose Exit from the File menu

Uninstalling JXEd
Delete the files in your install directory

Finding Documentation for JXEd
This version of JXEd is based on the open source Netbeans project. You can find information about Netbeans at the following URLs:

• The release notes for NetBeans IDE 6.0 are available at https://netbeans.org/community/releases/60/relnotes.htm.
• A Netbeans 6.0 Documentation Archive can be found at https://netbeans.org/kb/archive/index.html#NetBeans_6.0_Docs_Archives.
• Help documentation is available within the IDE. From the main menu, choose Help | Help Contents. The Help menu also provides links to other useful documents.
• Keyboard Shortcuts (pdf)

JXEd's User Directory
A default user directory is created the first time you start the IDE. It is used to store your user settings, options and runtime data for personal development servers. On Microsoft Windows systems, this directory is found at \Documents and Settings\user-id\.JXEd. On Solaris and Linux, this directory is found at /$HOME/.JXEd
