Maybe already knows the answer to my question, but I'm new using Java and JPCT, but I need to know this if I want to continue studying this language:

How do I install JPCT??

I don't know where or anything about how install JPCT, so if someone can help me??

There's not much to "install". You've to add the jpct.jar (at least...plus the lwjgl jars/native libs if needed) to the classpath. If you are using an IDE like Eclipse or JBuilder, this can be done inside the IDE. Otherwise, please check out the docs from SUN about how to do it.
This topic has been covered several times here in the forums. Have a look here:

I'm using JCreator.  So, if want to use JPCT, I hace to open JCreator, and find IDE, and then to add JPCT from there??
I don't have to add the path of the JPCT in my classpath??
Please, I told you, I need a guide for dummies

EgonOlsen

There has to an option in JCreator where you can add jar-files to the classpath. I don't know JCreator, so i can't really help you here, but i think you should be able to get this information out of the documentation of JCreator or from a JCreator forum or something.

I use JCreator because I love colored text... Normally, I recommend compiling by the Command Prompt~! Its so much more fun that way... Or so I think...

So, how can I configure JPCT if I'm usin JCreator??  I have tried a thousand of different ways, but I can't.  Please, I need help.  I'm using Jcreator 3.5 pro and Windows xp

Under project properties, find something that says Required libraries and add all of the jars that you got from downloading JPCT. I still recommend compiling using the Command Prompt.
