Josh Marinacci commented on MAITAI-1:
-------------------------------------

I don't think a single jar would work because you need to have all of the 
JavaFX runtime in the classpath, including FX's native libs.  What if there 
was a shell script to start it with the commandline 'javafx' program (meaning 
you'd have to have the JavaFX SDK installed already).

BTW, is there a bug filed on JavaFX for this issue?
