BeanShell conveniently packaged for the Mac
Thursday, December 4, 2008 at 9:56AM BeanShell is a great tool for Java programmers which allows you to type Java at a command line and have it evaluated immediately, just like languages such as Python.
BeanShell is distributed as a Java .jar file, and while it is pretty easy to run these on a Mac (just double-click), its a bit untidy as they have a generic icon, and tools like LaunchBar don't recognize them as a proper application.
To remidy this I've packaged up BeanShell as a proper Mac application, you can download the result here:
Download: BeanShell.app 2.0b4
NOTE: I didn't create BeanShell, I've just packaged it. To learn more about BeanShell, or to download its source code visit http://beanshell.org/.

sounds cool.. i will have to try it out at home, and get back to you
Ian, you'll need to modify the info.plist. Right now it specs the Java:ClassPath entry as "/Users/ian/Downloads/bsh-2.0b4(2).jar".To remedy, include the jar file under Resources/Java and change the key.
Btw, I added the jar to your bundle's Resources/Java and changed the ClassPath key to "bsh-2.0b4.jar", and it works. Thanks.

Joubin, thanks for pointing that out! I've now rectified the problem, please let me know if it works now.
Fixed!

A sail veering about the blank bay waiting for a swollen designer sunglasses wholesale bundle to bob up, roll over to the sun a puffy replica sunglasses wholesale face, salt white. Here I am. They followed the winding path down to the creek. Buck Mulligan stood on a stone, in shirtsleeves, his wholesale cheap sunglasses unclipped tie rippling over his shoulder. A young man clinging to a spur of rock near him moved slowly frogwise his green sunglass wholesale legs in the deep jelly of the water. Buck Mulligan sat down to unlace his wholesale oakley sunglasses boots. An elderly man shot up near the spur of rock a blowing red sunglasses for wholesale face. He scrambled up by the stones, water glistening on his fashion sunglasses wholesale pate and on its garland of grey hair, water rilling over his chest and paunch and spilling jets out of his wholesale sunglasses china black sagging loincloth.
