2 years ago Hi, I'll handle some of them, I'm preparing a MR for macOS and M1. Maybe the point about MaxScore should be a separated issue, with inputs from its makers.

Some updates can be made to the max-mxj~ package readme
The max-mxj~ package needs to be updated to include a line that tells you to navigate to https://www.java.com/en/download/ to get it running on Windows to download the JRE. The SE Development kit alone will need the JRE downloaded as well, or mxj~ object will come up bogus. Perhaps this doesn't need to be in the readme and can be in the "requirements."
For the sentence regarding the renaming of the JDK, it is not necessary as the folder is named jdk1.8.1 when downloaded from https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/downloads/
It says "Build as on MacOS" , but Windows doesn't use Xcode.
There are a few typos, "embedded" is consistently spelled incorrectly.
Also, the s3 link under continuous integration is currently broken
And from Alex:
A user was unable to open MaxScore on their Windows machine. I could repro on my windows 11 machine, and ultimately found that I needed to download a fresh JRE in addition to the JDK 18 in order to get MaxScore (and in fact, any mxj classes) working.
This was surprising to me, as I thought that the JDK included the JRE.
However, I could confirm that this could get mxj working on Windows 11, and it worked for the user as well. I recommended the user also update to JDK 18 from the JDK 17 that shipped with MaxScore.
