Class AppleCommander

java.lang.Object
  com.webcodepro.applecommander.ui.AppleCommander

public class AppleCommander
extends java.lang.Object

Launch AppleCommander. This application attempts to identify which type of user-interface to launch. Additionally, there are some command-line interface switches available - see the about method.

Regarding SWT, this appliation launcher tries to not be SWT dependent. That means that SwtAppleCommander is launched purely by reflection. NOTE: This may yet prove to be a worthless trick. If it is, remove the crud. However, as the VERSION and COPYRIGHT are in this class and are referenced in various places, it may well be worth it.
