It is pretty well documented in replicator.pl.  I wrote it with
Objective C programs in mind. I don't see why it won't work with
a javaSwarm program, if you give "javaswarm Whatever" as the
program name.  Did you try it?
Of course,if you have a swarm program compiled with gcj, then
you have an executable program name and replicator obviously
applies for that.  If you pass Java arguments in a way that is
different from regular-old-swarm, then you have to adjust the
replicator script, of course.  But, if you just read through it,
it is pretty obvious.

Obviously, "you" here does not refer to me, because I've stated
my opinion several times.
