This is an interesting project. Just from looking at the readme I like it a lot.
Then I downloaded the jar file from Beta Release 2 and tried to execute it, but all I got was:
$ java -jar mvgscreen.jar
Error: Could not find or load main class de.kyrtap5.mvgscreen.Main
Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javafx/application/Application
$
As the code is a few years old, the missing JavaFX may be due to newer JDKs. I am using
$ java -version
openjdk version "21.0.7" 2025-04-15
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 21.0.7+6-Ubuntu-0ubuntu124.04)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 21.0.7+6-Ubuntu-0ubuntu124.04, mixed mode, sharing)
$
As the jar did not help I tried building the source code myself, but again there is a question how this thing should be built. There is no Ant script, no Maven pom, no Ivy or Makefile or anything whatsoever.
How can this project be built so it is runnable again?
