Getting Started with Jim

• On a PC running Microsoft Windows, go to the Start button, then All Programs (or All Apps), Jim10 sub-menu then the Jim10 menu item.
  Or you can double-click on the Jim desktop shortcut.
  Note: if you don't have a desktop shortcut, you may want to drag the Jim10 menu item onto your desktop to create a desktop shortcut.
• On a Linux computer with the KDE or Gnome desktop environment and a Start Applications button, the Jim suite of programs is placed either:
• In the Applications, Science & Math category, or
• In a new Applications category Jim10.

The menu will contain Jim10 (and all the other stand-alone tools).
Note: you may want to drag the Jim10 application onto your desktop to create a shortcut, if a desktop shortcut has not been created by the installer. - On an Apple Mac, click on the Jim10 icon in the installation folder (/Applications/Xinapse/Jim10).
Note: you may want to drag the Jim10 application onto your desktop to create a shortcut. - On Linux, if you put the the install location for Jim10 (normally /opt/Xinapse/Jim10) in your path, you can then type: Jim10
in a terminal window. If you chose a different installation directory and cannot remember where you installed to, then you can find the actual installed location using the command
find / -name Jim10 -print

Note: see the customisation instructions for Linux systems or Apple Mac systems if you want to put the scripts to start Jim in a more convenient location.
