Requires:

- Java JRE 1.6.x+
  - Windows: http://www.java.com/en/download/index.jsp
  - Linux: Package manager (yum/apt) or http://www.java.com/en/download/index.jsp
  - OS X: Software Update should update to the latest java but sometimes that does not work properly.
          Manuel Update
            -10.5.x: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL971
                   On OSX 10.5, the JRE 1.6 may be installed, but the JRE 1.5 may still be ahead
                   in the PATH causing the ded.sh script to fail. In this case, look for the file:
                   /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6/Commands/java
                   and make sure that occurs first in your path, or else edit the ded.sh script
                   explicitly call that version.
            -10.6.x: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL972
