Hello,

I just finished writing the Windows freeware program Jarx. After
installing Jarx, you can double click your JAR files to execute them. No
need to construct shortcuts or make bat files.

I really like your opinion about the program (and about the website,
incl. the language used).

I'm thinking about making a version software vendors can ship with their
  Java programs. What do you think about that?

You can find the program here:
