Running a Processing sketch/applet created with Eclipse

on the command line

• make a new directory in your file system. Call it temp for example.
• copy all the java files creating your project to this directory
• add a main() method to the class that extends PApplet:

	static public void main(String args[]) {
            // use the name of this class in string below
	    PApplet.main( "MVC1_viewer" );
	}

make sure to replace MVC1_viewer by whatever your class name is.

• copy core.jar to this directory as well.
• compile the files:

javac -classpath ./core.jar *.java

• run the applet:

java -cp ./core.jar:. MVC1_viewer

where MVC1_viewer is our main class, the one extending PApplet.
