The good news is that I just dowloaded the nightly build of OpenJUMP and it
sucessfully executed using the batch file.
The bad news is that this means I don't know how to properly build a JAR
file. :[
I'm going to extract the contents of the JAR from the nightly build and see
if I can repackage it into a JAR that executes. Perhaps this will help me
determine what my problem is.

Larry,
I'm starting to suspect that it isn't my build file. I used the JAR tool
from the command line to build the a single JAR file from for OpenJUMP with
and without a provided manifest file. Java still complains about not finding
a main class if I execute the JAR created with the manifest, and if I run
the batch file on the JAR file created without the manfiest.
I'm going to download the nightly build now and see if it will work. I did
check the JUMPWorkbench class, and it still has a main method. :]
Thanks for your help.

P.S. - I find it odd that Vivid would move from a single JAR, to 2 jars,
and then back to a single JAR. Perhaps I am looking at the worng version of
JUMP. Maybe David or Ed will get back to us on this.
