Starting jmover

jmover requires a JDK 8 or respectively JRE 8. jmover is with all needed dependencies contained in a single JAR file, so the following command is sufficient to start jmover:

            
java -jar target/jmove-<VERSION>-jmover.jar [JMOVE-PROJECT-FILE]
             
        

For your convenience we supply small shell wrappers to call:

• jmover.bat
• jmover.sh

jmover save its preferences in the file "jmove.properties" in the current directory. The preference value "Project / Load last project on start" speeds up the start of working with your last saved project. More information about the use of jmover can be found in the help menu.
