[»] Looks interesting but crashed before I could try it

Looks like a file is missing from the distro or in the
wrong place. I ran the command line below from
the bin dir of the installation. Seemed easier than
editing the shell script to do the same thing.

That is definitely a path problem. move up one dir and launch...i.e.

cd ..

java -jar bin/jwall.jar

That should fix it.
