====== Installation of JChemPaint 3.1.0 ======

===== Additional libraries =====

Java, already installed.

===== Procedure =====

Here is the procedure to install JChemPaint:

  * JChemPaint is distributed as a JAR archive, ready to execute. Create a folder under ''/home/bioubuntu'' to put the archive in and move this folder to ''/opt/bio/sources''.

<code bash>
<code bash>
% mkdir jchempaint-3.1.2
% mv jchempaint-3.1.2.jar jchempaint-3.1.2
% sudo mv jchempaint-3.1.2 /opt/bio/sources
</code>
</code>

  * This folder should belong to ''root'' and its permissions set to ''755''.

<code bash>
% sudo chown -R root:root /opt/bio/sources/jchempaint-3.1.2
% sudo chmod 755 /opt/bio/sources/jchempaint-3.1.2
</code>

  * Once you are in ''/opt/bio/sources/jchempaint'', create a small startup script to failitate the job:
<code bash>
% sudo nano runJChemPaint
</code>

  * Put this code in it:
<code>
#!/bin/bash
export JCP_HOME=/opt/bio/sources/jchempaint-3.1.2
java -Xmx512m -jar $JCP_HOME/jchempaint-3.1.2.jar
</code>

  * You need to make this script executable and available to all:
<code bash>
% sudo chmod ugo+x runJChemPaint
% sudo ln -s /opt/bio/sources/jchempaint-3.1.2/runJChemPaint /usr/local/bin/runJChemPaint
</code>

  * To add JChemPaint to the Impilo application menu, you need to edit the Xfce4 configuration file:
    * More to come...

  * To use JChemPaint from the command line:

<code bash>
% runJChemPaint
