MorsePractice is a Java application (or applet) that you can use to
learn Morse Code. You will find the latest version and documentation on
my home page at <http://homepage.mac.com/k6mam/>.

To run MorsePractice you need the program file and a suitable Java
environment. The procedure is slightly different for Macintosh (MacOS),
Windows, and Linux systems.

On the Macintosh, you need MRJ 2.2 or later. This is the current MRJ
release and may be downloaded from Apple Computer's Java support area.
MorsePractice will not work on the previous release, MRJ 2.1.4, that was
provided with by the System 8.6 and System 9.0 installers. If you are unable
to upgrade to MRJ 2.2, please see my home page for further information.

On Windows, Windows/NT, and Linux, first ensure that you have a suitable
Java environment. After installing Java, copy MorsePractice.jar to a
directory on your local system. In the following example, I saved the file
to "C:\Download" Windows/95 cannot handle long file and folder names, so
you will have to use an abbreviated form: "C:\DOWNLO~1".

On Windows/98, Windows/NT, and Start MorsePractice using the command

 java -jar MorsePractice.jar
 
On Windows/95, you need to provide a script like the following:

 SET PATH=%PATH%;C:\PROGRA~1\JAVASOFT\JRE\1.2\BIN
 SET CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;C:\PROGRA~1\JAVASOFT\JRE\1.2\BIN
 CD C:\DOWNLO~1
 java -jar MORSEP~1.JAR

On Linux, you need to create a shell script that adds
MorsePractice.jar to the classpath and starts the application using
the "java" command:

Please contact me by email to <k6mam@arrl.net> if you find any bugs
in MorsePractice.
