In any case, I downloaded the 4.3.1 jar file just now and ran it

you are in a different directory and just need to supply the path to the
jar file?

  This is one reason to use shell scripts. For example, my jabref.sh* (chmod
a+x) contains:

#!/bin/bash

cd /opt/JabRef/
java -jar JabRef-3.8.2.jar
cd

  This lets me open it from any virtual desktop (Xfce4 panel).
