That is my site and your statement is not exactly true.  I am no longer 
providing a standalone application due to lack of interest.  It still 
runs under OS X either natively (though I recommend using a newer 
tcl/tk from http://tkaqua.sourceforge.net/) or via X11.  If there was 
enough interest I could provide it again but I never heard any feedback 
so I stopped wasting my efforts.

I have spent quite a bit of time making sure that the base RoverLog 
code will run under OS X with no modification.  I currently run it 
under X11 with no problems.  I'll have to reword my language as 
RoverLog is a great app and works fine with OS X.

That note was in regards to Java 1.4.2_03 that came with the 10.3.4 
update.  I'm not sure when 1.4.2_05 came out (I'm running 10.3.7) but 
it works fine here under 1.4.2_05.
