Java Myriorama

The JAR file contains:

  * Myrio.java, MyrioPanel.java, Tile.java

  * this readme.txt

  * the compiled classes

  * a pics/ directory containing 16 images comprising Clark and Leigh's 
    "Myriorama: A Collection of Many Thousand Landscapes, Designed by Mr. Clark"


-------------------------------
Execution:

  * double click on Myrio.jar
  or
  > java -jar Myrio.jar


If you want to display a different myriorama, then call the JAR with
its images' directory name:

  > java -jar Myrio.jar series2

A zipped "series2" directory is available from this website.

The pictures should be roughly the same size, and can be saved as JPEGs or PNG's. There should be at least 6 images in the directory, but more pictures make for more varied landscapes.


------------------------------
Compilation:

Extract the three source files from the JAR, and then recompile them
  > javac *.java

Create a manifest.txt file containing 1 line:

Main-Class: Myrio

Generate Myrio.jar:

  > jar cvmf manifest.txt Myrio.jar *.class *.java readme.txt pics
