historical interest and pure vanity!
These days, if you're interested in a much, much better Cellular

Building Automata
-----------------
Automata uses the Ant Java build system. To build a JAR file, just type:
Automata uses [Maven](https://maven.apache.org/) to build :
% ant
% mvn package
To build a full release, including a versioned ZIP file, type:
% ant release
Building on OS X
----------------
On OS X, this project uses the JarBundler ant task (another weekend
project of mine) to create an executable Java bundle. Type:
% ant release-macosx
Running Automata Explorer
-------------------------
Automata requires the Java Runtime version 1.3 or later.
To run by hand from the command line, just type
UNIX or OS X:
% java -jar bin/automata.jar
WINDOWS
> java -jar BIN\automata.jar
Mac OS X releases will produce a double-clickable bundle, as well.
On OS X, this project includes an ICNS resource and defines packaging
variables so that the native bundler will generate a disk image installer.
To make this work, you'll want to define the property `jfxapp.mac.signing-key`
either in `pom.xml` or in your `settings.xml`. To get a signing key, you'll
need to register an Apple ID as an [Apple developer](https://developer.apple.com).
