http://jon.kw.net/download/linksys/

it's a linksys LogViewer but it's in some sort of java class. Is there a way to make an app out of it for OS X? maybe a GUI front end or something? I tried running it with the Javabrowser that came with the Developer Tools, but it looks all foreign to me.

any help would be greatly appreciated. thank you.

The javabrowser is designed for the purpose of inspecting class structures and not for launching java executables. You can launch a java program by opening the Terminal.app then navigating to the directory of interest an entering, assuming that you want to run program.class
<font color = red>
username% java program arguments
</font>
For the app at hand the author created a nice bash shell script to launch it.
<font color = red>
username% sh ./startLogger.sh
</font>
Before you do that, you need to configure its settings, per the included README.html.

As far as turning it into a useful app with a nice GUI, it's absolutely possible. It just requires some free time etc. etc.
