Thanks Bill! It's been a while since I've had to think about the basics
of linux distros. I was puzzled by "aptitude install" but soon realized
it was "apt-get install" :-) And that worked: jqt now seems to run fine.
I've now got to put it through its paces and see if everything is OK.

                                           Regards,
                                           Patrick

Oh! that's what's going on. I have a mac-mini running the latest OS
(10.12.2) and I got the same junk from sierra-fix command. I ended up
defining executable files with contents like:
  /Applications/j64-805/bin/jqt.command &
  /Applications/j64-805/bin/jconsole
  /Applications/j64-805/bin/jhs.command
as the only way I could get jqt,jconsole ans jhs to run. I have not been
able to get the J icons to work :-( I guess I should erase this all and
try a re-install?

My real problem now is getting j64-805 to work on my new laptop: a Dell
XPS 13 with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS installed. Previous to the latest stable
805 release I could at least start jqt with j64-805/bin/jqt, but now
can only get jconsole to run and jqt gives messages like "libjqt.so:
libQt5WebSockets.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file
or directory." I'll write more details later -- this is such a sweet
machine and I want to get jqt running properly on it!
