yes :)
i extended the previous version by Jon to add the class paths (He 
created a customized manifest to have some more info on the release)

yes again.. the idea has been to add the class paths, so we do not need 
to define all the jars in the windows batch or sh files.. a suggestion 
made by larry a few months ago (his email included some script code as 
well)
but on my first test it does not seem to recognize the added class paths 
(and those must be relatives paths if it should work on every machine)

actually i am not very familar with this stuff, that might be the reason 
while i failed for now with the classpath registering
