Previous versions of curn could be installed manually or via a graphical installer. With the 3.0 release of curn, only the graphical installer is supported. That's because the installer creates a custom front-end shell script (for Unix and Mac OS X) or command script (for Windows) that sets up the proper runtime environment before running curn. Replicating that work manually is enough of a pain that it is no longer officially supported. In a future release, curn will support a non-graphical (command-line) installer, as well as the graphical installer.

To install via the graphical installer:

  • Download the installer jar, install-curn-3.2.6.jar
  • Run the installer jar:
      java -jar install-curn-3.2.6.jar
  • Follow the instructions in the graphical installation screens.

Once you've installed the curn via the graphical installer, you should run it via the curn shell script (for Unix systems) or the curn.bat DOS script (for Windows systems), located in the bin directory where you installed curn.

The graphical installer uses the IzPack installer framework.
