Jukka and Geoff,
Thank you very much for your comments. I will provide a batch file for
Windows users as well.

Hi,
Installer would be fine to have for the official release. However, I
suppose that at least Windows users will need administrator rights for
successful installation. Therefore I would like to see also the batch file
as an alternative and still relatively simple way for running OpenJUMP
without need to actually install anything. I have copied Java, OpenJUMP and
a lot of data on an external USB hard disk and it is extremely nice to just
plug the drive to any computer, run the batch file and go on with a
demonstration.
