[Divunal-devel] Faucet on Windows

[Ben Moore]

OK.  Here's what you have to do.

You will need to run the faucet manually for now, until somebody takes a look
at the batch files for running the faucet on Win9x/NT/2K.  (I may have time to
do it, just not today.)  What you will need to do first is set your classpath
to include the <faucet install location>/javaclasses directory.  (using set)
Then you will need to go to the faucet directory and run java manually.  The
command will be:
  java twisted.reality.client.Faucet

In summation you will do the following(this is for win9x/NT/2k):
open an MS-DOS Prompt(Command prompt)
cd <faucet directory>
set CLASSPATH=./javaclasses
java twisted.reality.client.Faucet

Enjoy!
