I'm clueless about MACs.

I wrote a small program for a friend and he has a MAC desktop of some
sort. I don't know how to tell him to install it or run it. Can
anybody give me some generic instructions? The program has to have
access to a directory in the same directory as the program and it needs
to have a working FTP server running on the machine that can put files
in the same directory. Is that doable on a MAC? Amy idea of what Java
version is available?

Thanks for any pointers.

In article <jmo160$acd$1...@dont-email.me>,
Java on Mac OS X depends on the OS version. Version 10.7 (Lion) is
current, but I haven't tried it:

<http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1515>

To verify, have your friend click on the Apple menu and choose About
This Mac.

Also, a minor spelling note: <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mac>.
