Does processing leave you with a runnable file(like java.jar or C#.exe), or do you always have to have the processing IDE available to execute programs ?
I've only used processing once, and at that point I did'nt need to run it without processing IDE, so i never checked.
I had my first go at processing yesterday, and there are a couple of export options - one for an applet, and one for an exe (under windows). This does indeed run without the IDE.
