1.2 Running Tunnel
Once you have both Java and Tunnel, you can run Tunnel going into its
directory and executing the command (as in the picture below)
java Tunnel.MainBox
Windows users: in the command-prompt window, use the command cd
to change directory. The syntax is "cd subdirectory" to go down into
the subdirectory, and "cd .." to up to the parent subdirectory.
To change the drive, type the drive name. For example type "D:" to change to
the drive D.
Linux users: in the terminal window, use "cd" to change directory
until you get to the tunnelx directory. The syntax of "cd" is the same
as for windows users (see above).
Mac users: HELP_ME: running tunnel on mac

If everything goes ok, you will get the Tunnel MainBox window
as shown in the picture below. This is all for chapter one.
Click on the window "File | Exit" and click the button "yes"
to close it.
You do not need to read the following sections right now.
They explain how to compile Tunnel, and how to setup run
scripts. You can come back to them later.
Take a break and have a cup of your favourite drink before
moving into the next chapter, in which you will draw your first
cave map with Tunnel.
If you want, you can read the next two sections about
compiling Tunnel
and
using run script
.
This material can be safely skipped, so you can jump to
chapter two
.
