Here are Henry's instructions ... along with a Step 0 and Step 5 from Tim
Driscoll.

Miguel


step 0.

a. if you installed the Developer Tools (Xcode Tools) that came with
OSX, go to /Developer/Applications/Java and launch JarBundler.

b. if you do not have Developer Tools installed, you have two options:

   i. register at Apple's Developer Connection (free) and download the
   latest version of Developer Tools.  you can get more info here
   <http://developer.apple.com/tools/macosxtools.html>. scroll to the
   bottom of the page and read "Getting the Xcode Tools". recommended
   since it ensures you have the latest version.

   ii. run a custom install from your latest OSX system CD. not as
   good as (i), but if you run multiple Software Update sessions I
   believe you will eventually get the most recent release.

1. In Build information, enter org.openscience.jmol.app.Jmol for the
main class
2. In Jar Bundler, got Classpath and files, and browse to
jmol.jar from Additional files and resources
3. In properties, you might wish to optionally define the signature as
Jmol (but I dont know if that particular signature is reserved; you have
to be an  Apple developer to do this!)  along with other
information such as  version number
4. In Classpath and files, select "create application" and save

5. when in doubt, use the default settings for JarBundler.
