getWebstartLocation

public static java.io.File getWebstartLocation()

Search for the Java web start application. If you cannot find it, prompt the user. In the future, there should be a better way to do this, but what, I don't know. And what if javaws cannot be found because it is not installed? Tricky!

the java webstart file.
