Ah, found the file, edited same and got the mod to load with just a double click. Thanks. For those of you attempting to do this, please note that there are several "vassal.jnlp" files in a number of locations; the one you want is "launch_module.jnlp" which is located in the root of your main Vassal directory. Just edit the file with Notepad or similar; the instructions, as Torsten notes, are practically self-explanatory!
