Just do : java -jar hidejournal-0.3.1jar
It will run if the jar file is an executable jar file, otherwise it's
just an archive with java .class files and possible other resources
such as images, source code, etc. U can see the contents and extract a
jar file usar sun's java sdk command line tool jar, it has flags very
similiar to tar.
