IMPORTANT
a solution to the accessing-datafile-inside-jarfile problem:
 
have a look at ImageTest.java to see how datafiles
can be found in a way that works both from the
file-system as well as out of jar-file

for reading from files that way use the method
openStream of class URL, which returns an 
InputStream (wrap it into BufferedInputStream,
or InputStreamReader, or ...)
