This gets FoxTelem_1.00.app (cube sat decoder) working for me.
Just run /Applications/Utilities/Java Preferences.app and put "Java SE 6" first, and terminal commands like
java -jar FoxTelem.app/Contents/Resources/Java/FoxTelem.jar
now work.
Phew!
Many thanks
The lack of 10.5.8 support is a continuous pain, as I have some old PPC apps that will break if I go to a newer OS.
