Compare 2 files for BOM

[Stefan Frenz]

OK, I think I need to install Java11 and JavaFX then.
This seems a bit complicated even for me.
Though I concider myself fairly technical and capable to work with computers and stuff, I have been spending the whole morning now to even begin to understand what to download and install....

I have a Java installed, a Java SDK and JavaFX SDK but not a clue how to get things running.

I'm very sorry for this.   The installer should download Java and JavaFX, extract them at the current location and should then create a batch file (Windows) resp. bash file (Linux) to start it, so hopefully nothing has to be installed manually - and yes, the Java starting philosophy is, hum, "not always self-explanatory".  At the moment the installer should download and use version 13 of Java and JavaFX.

On Linux, the installer output should look somewhat like this (tested right now):

Code:

run script created, please execute run.sh to start LDInspector

After that, starting LDInspector should be easily done via

Code:

smf@smfh:~/tmp$ ./run.sh

At the first start, the GUI should ask for your LDraw path and basic configuration.

Which version (Windows, Linux) did you try, was there any error in the script? Edit: found your post above.
