John, I have liblouis, liblouisutdml and BB NewDesign compiling fine in Vinux. When I run the "java -jar brailleblaster.jar" command in the terminal window, I get the following error: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -1 at java.lang.String.substring(String.java:1911) at org.brailleblaster.wordprocessor.BBToolBar.<init>(BBToolBar.java:59) at org.brailleblaster.wordprocessor.WPManager.<init>(WPManager.java:91) at org.brailleblaster.Main.main(Main.java:55) I downloaded the swt.jar file from the website for 64-bit Linux. Is this the newer swt.jar file? Shouldn't it work? I am using the same jliblouisutdml.jar file that I was using in Windows. I don't think it has changed recently. Shouldn't that work? The program doesn't even come up. When I try to launch it from the terminal, it never comes up and this error appears in the terminal window. Suggestions? Best regards from Ohio, Vic
