Just been going over the wrapper config with the idea of putting 
something up to run merlin as an NT service.
The normal starup of Merlin is :

  java -Djava.ext.dirs=[extensions-dir] -jar [merlin-jar-file] 
[kernel-file-path]

Do you know off-hand if the wrapper package handles -jar based launching 
(i.e. no main class declaration) ?

Cheers, Steve.
