It should run on the PC too, but I have never tested it. I'll take my TX7 into work today and give it a go.
To run my program on any machine, you have to have Java installed and it be set up to run .jar files. If Java is installed normally, you can run .jar files just by double clicking on them. I've put a test file up into that you or anyone could use to test if they have java installed and set up. Called "TestJar.jar". If you save this on your desktop and double click, it'll run and bring up a small window saying that you can run .jar files, or it won't. Could you please give that a test?
I've just tried on my Mac (OS X 10.6.8) and it runs a .jar file fine if double clicked, with just the standard java and java setup that comes with the operating system.
At present I have no installer. I can send a .jar file by normal email (don't want to upload one in public yet), but I will also have to send the help as a zip file that you'd have to extract. If you want the "speech" part of it, then that's a 15M zip file of audio (which needs to grow once I work out the full list of words and phrases it needs and add the missing ones), which I'd need to distribute .... somehow.
Cheers,
Ross
