Installing Synching Thunder


For Windows users:
- Novice users download the windows installer file with bundled JAVA run time environment(Win-SynchingThunder_with_JRE.msi)
- If you're a bit more experienced, and already know what JAVA is or how to get it (version 1.5 or greater http://java.com/) download the windows installer file without a bundled JRE (Win-SynchingThunder_no_JRE.msi).

For Mac/Linux users:
- If one of the machines you're trying to synchronize is a windows machine, I would still recommend one of the packages above (because you only need Synching Thunder on one machine).
- If not download the alternative platform zip file (Other_Platforms_Mac_Linux_etc.zip). And extract all of the files to a directory of your choice. Add these files to your system CLASSPATH variable (adding the directory is not enough, you need to add the individual files). If you have no idea what a system variable is, then extract them to the 'ext' directory of your JAVA installation (typically /usr/java/jre1.5.0/lib/ext on a linux machine...and I have no idea where it is on a Mac machine - email me if you know). Then you can either double-click on the synchingthunder.jar or launch it from the command shell using 'java net.ivanovic.synchingthunder.SynchingThunderUI -Xmx256M' (without the quotes).
