To run FLAP via a command line as a stand-alone application:
 Set your CLASSPATH variable to point to the "flap" folder. For
 example,

 "setenv CLASSPATH $CLASSPATH:$HOME/flap/classes" (UNIX, csh)
 You can add the above line to your .cshrc file or type it in a
 shell. Here the "/flap" directory is in "~/".

 You can add the above line to your autoexec.bat or type it in a
 shell. Here the "\flap" directory is in "C:\temp".

 Now simply, run your favorite JVM with the FacilityFrame class. For 
 example,
 
 "java FacilityFrame" if you are using the JDK1.1 on a shell prompt.
 "jre FacilityFrame" if you are using the JRE1.1 on a shell prompt.

To compile FLAP (if you have the source), type the command in the
flap/src directory
"javac -O -d ../classes *.java" in /flap/src
