to generate the documentation for this package, go into the directory FlashCards and then run terminal from there
/media/sda6/Data/Miscellaneous/Archives/2007/7/22/FlashCards# javadoc -d doc -private *.java
To compile into jar file, change current directory to outside of FlashCards
here include the manifest.mf
make sure that manifest ends with new line character
here is an example of manifest file
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: 1.5.0_11 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)
Main-Class: FlashCards.cFlashCards
run the following command
jar cmf manifest.mf FlashCards.jar FlashCards
here c stands for creating new jar file, m stands for inclusion of custom manifest file, f stands for the file or directory to be included
don't ever attempt to repack the jar file with standard zip files as jar file is not a zip (although it certainly looks so)
