Does anyone have or know of a port of JavaNNS to OS X?
Thanks.

isn't the point of java that it is supposed to work on any platform? i
assume you tried opening it on osX and it didn't work, right. i can't
really offer any help but i'm mostly just curious.

All Java programs are compiled into a code (beta-code) which works
ona a Java Virtual Machine. The VM is itself a program and libraries
albe to execute the beta code.

To obtain the VM one must download the Java Runtime Environment(JRE)
from Sun:
http://java.sun.com/getjava/

But Mac OS X 10.1 includes the Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition
(J2SETM) version 1.3.1

I am not a Mac user, but the way you run a Java program on a Windows,
Linux, or Unix system is to type:

java NameOfClass

java starts the VM and NameOfClass is the name of the main class
file (Whatever.class) without extension.

If the program is packaged into a JAR file, then the syntax is slightly
different (this time the extension is not ommited):

java -jar NameOfClass.jar

I hope this helps, more information may be found on the java.sun.
com and http://www.apple.com/java/ websites.
