You can download the jar file (preserve the .jar extension),
and then it can be run as an application like
"java -jar AbacusApp.jar -rails=15" or
"java -jar AbacusApp.jar -lee=1 -leftAuxRails=9 -rightAuxRails=9".

There is a feature for teachers to
test students on the use the abacus. This would give the ability
to create your own tests.
Results would go into a results directory. Sample tests are given
in zip file (there is only the one test so far).
The idea is to move the beads to the correct position and then
record the answer by a certain time.
See project notes for todo list and history.
