[LUG] executing jar file from ubuntu menu

 

Hi 
I've installed a java app called storYbook. It starts from the command
line in its installation directory from a script file called
storybook.sh. This contains java -Xmx192m -jar lib/storybook.jar which
also works.

I'm trying to put it into the ubuntu menu. I've tried
/home/simon/storybook/storybook.sh
the same with a "." the front and 
java -Xmx192m -jar /home/simon/storybook/lib/storybook.jar and
variations on them.

Running the last command from anywhere apart from gets a missing file
report from java.

What should I be doing?

Thanks
   Simon
