Jigsaw release 2.0 beta 2
-------------------------

Due to this original architecture, Jigsaw's configuration process is
not the one you are used to see in file-based servers, this is why
this README starts by this warning: 

    Read the documentation first !

Running the server:
-------------------

To read the documentation, you will have to first run Jigsaw, the
simplest way of doing so is the following:

0) Get a Java interpreter and install it. As of Jigsaw/1.0beta, Java
   version 1.1 is required.
   You can get Sun's Java intepreter for free from:
     http://www.javasoft.com

1) Set your CLASSPATH environment variable in order to include
   Jigsaw's classes. To do this:
   
     On Windows
       set CLASSPATH=<instdir>\Jigsaw\classes\jigsaw.zip
     On UNIX
       export CLASSPATH=<instdir>/Jigsaw/classes/jigsaw.zip

   Where <instdir> should be substitued with the absolute path of the
   directory in which you unpacked Jigsaw.

2) Check that your PATH setting allow you to run the Java
   interpreter. This will usually be the case if you have installed
   Sun's JDK. 

3) Build the right property files
     Go to <instdir>/Jigsaw/Jigsaw (Windows: <instdir>\Jigsaw\Jigsaw)
     set temporarily your classpath to "." and execute:
       java Install

5) Run the server:

     On Windows
       java org.w3c.jigsaw.Main -root <instdir>\Jigsaw\Jigsaw
     On UNIX
       java org.w3c.jigsaw.Main -root <instdir>/Jigsaw/Jigsaw

5) Point your browser to the server's home page. At step 3), the
   server will have emited the full URL it is listening on, just point
   your browser to this URL and follow the instructions.
