To get Jago to run, you need to install a Java run-time locally. You must use
the 1.1.x runtime. Then download the new version jago.zip
from our
server. You can start Java with
set CLASSPATH=path_of_jago.jar java jagoclient/Go
or the corresponding command in UNIX. If you are using a foreign language ressource, add it to the CLASSPATH. If you are using another runtime (like the Internet Explorere runtime with the jview command or the jre of Sun), replace the java command, of course.
Follow these steps for Windows 95/NT systems.
Make sure you have a Java Runtime of version 1.1 or higher. The ZIP-file must
be unzipped. This will create a directory Jago
.
The program may be started from a command line with
set CLASSPATH=jago.jar java Go
This assumes that the java program is in your program path. If not, insert the directory of java (usually .../java/bin or something similar) into the path. You may want to do all this in a shell script.
This assumes, you have a local Java runtime installed (either Sun's or the one from Intenrnet Explorer 4.0). If you haven't, install the 1.1.x Java runtime environment, which you may find on our server. Just run the file. Then you download the Jago ZIP file (for a self installing version, see above).
You will have to unzip the Jago ZIP file. This will create a directory named Jago
.You can then go that directory (assuming
it is C:\Jago
) and start
Jago with
C: cd \jago jrew -cp jago.jar Go
You should put this into a batch file and set up an icon to run this batch file. In case of the Internet Explorer 4.0 runtime, use
jview Go
instead. If you have installed the JDK from Sun, use
set CLASSPATH=jago.jar javaw Go
I have written more help for this system into the FAQ.
First of all, you can send local characters to the server. Java keeps the characters internally as UNICODE, and will send them using your local encoding. To view these characters properly, you will have to enter your local encoding in the server edit dialog. By default, your local encoding is used here. However, you can change this to 8859_1, which is a good default.
Masamitsu Junji took the effort to rewrite Jago to support international menus and dialogs. He also prepared a Japanese version. To use a local version, you need the proper resources. I will bundle each local resource into jar files and publish them on my server. To use these resources, add them into your classpath. E.g., start Jago with
jrew -cp jago.jar;JagoResource_de.jar Go
This examples is for the German version. Available local version are
Since it is best to have the version of Jago which fits your resource file, you should download the Jago version from the same site as your resource. Jago will continue to work with an older resource file, but some strings may not translate and some help files may be outdated.
You can run Jago in another language (even if it is not your locale) by downloading its resource and setting the language with the corresponding menu item. Normally it will run in your local language automatically, if you have installed the resource.
To prepare your own local version, you need to do the following
