 "Jmol Application" is the version of Jmol that runs as a standalone program, in its own window. The program code is written using the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_programming_language Java programming language], therefore to be run it needs an installed ''Java Virtual Machine'' (a runtime version of Java, or ''JRE''); this ''JVM'' is available for all major operating systems, including Windows, MacOS and Linux.
