I have made a little progress - by downloading a prebuilt version of Spark
I can call spark-shell.cmd and bring up a spark shell.
In the shell things run.
Next I go to my development environment and try to run JavaWordCount
i try -Dspark.master=spark://local[*]:55519
-Dspark.master=spark://Asterix:7707 (Asterix is my machine)
end many other combinations

I can hit a web page
 http://asterix:4040/environment/
and see many details about a presumably running spark master but the
incantation to allow a simple job like JavaWordCount is escaping me

Oh yes - I am running on Windows 8

Any help would be appreciated starting with how do I know a spark master is
running and what port it is on
