Scripting with Java

How exactly would I use a script made with Java? The tutorial points it to the "path of the script", but the examples use compiled C binaries, and I don't think I can readily get Java stand-alone binaries. So do I supply the run-time command like "java ~/foobar" ?

yes, or if that is too long-winded to type, create a bash script to hold the java command

something like

#!/bin/sh
java -cp [whatever you need to put here] ClassName

make that executable and it should work fine as long as java is in the $PATH
