Haven't checked it out yet, but sounds cool.
One thing I wanted to point out was in your original post you said that you didn't know what command to use to run it in other OS's. It should be the same thing, no matter what the OS is.
You should be able to use the command:
at the command line, provided the client has the JRE installed (
http://java.sun.com).
For windows:
cmd or command or MS-DOS prompt
for linux, this can be done from the shell / terminal, such as Konsole (KDE). It shouldn't need root or superuser access.
Not sure about the Mac command prompt, but the command is the safe (yay for cross-platform!)
Also, Jota, would you be able to post what version of Java it was compiled with (I'm assuming 5 or 6).

You need to have a JRE installed for it to work...
JRE = "Java Runtime Environment"...

Once that's installed - then all you need to do is double click on the .jar file that you've just downloaded.

You may have installed a JDK instead of a JRE...
