Unix install summary:

J is installed on your Unix system with file j50XY_Z.tar.gz
(X-minor release number, Y-bug level, and Z- lowercase uname).
Example unames are linux and darwin (for Mac OS X).

The first step is to unpack the gzipped tar file to create a directory
tree rooted at j50XY. Unpack on Linux with:
   tar -xzf j50XY_linux.tar.gz

The simplest install is to do the unpack in your home directory.
If you do, you are ready to run J after the unpack.

Start Jwd with command ~/j50XY/jw and start Jconsole with ~/j50XY/jc.
A common jw failure is that java isn't on your path and you can edit
jw to give the full path.

To run Jwd you need Java installed (verson 1.4.0 or later).

For more detailed info and installs in other than your home directory
see the HTML documentation.
