[mkgmap-dev] Contributing to mkgmap

Hi Peter,

I know the phenomenon from other applications. 
Main.class.getResourceAsStream("/help/en/options") works via the 
classloader. If running from a .jar, the resources have been packaged 
with the classes during build.

But when launching from the IDE, the classes are located in ./classes 
while the resource file is still in a different path ./resources/help.

Manually copying the resource files into classes/ allowed mkgmap to run, 
but as mkgmap includes an IntelliJ Run/Debug configuration I was amazed 
that it did not work.

Well, let's concentrate on the feature.

bye,
          Nop
