Section 1.6.2 of the manual tells you exactly what to type to compile Jess from source, and 1.6.3 tells you exactly how to run Jess, using either the source distribution or the binary one (the one that comes with jess.jar). To follow these instructions, however, you do need to have a Java distribution properly installed, so that you can invoke java and/or javac from the command line. See www.javasoft.com to get Sun's Java Developer's Kit -- and try to find a local Java guru to help you get it set up if you run into trouble. Help on installing Java is off-topic for this list.
