Heheh... yeah i know i know, this should be an easy one... not

ive tried everything, ive looked everywhere, i cant seem to find an
answer. I saw posts that people made on loading resources that are
inside a jar and having problems... and it worked fine if the res were
not in the jar...

well im having the opposite problem. i cant load anything outside the
jar else it returns null... it works perfectly when i run in eclipse,
but it hates jars

(ive tried using .getClass.getResource() blah blah blah doesnt work)

but my file is a .properties that is external to the jar (jar is jnlp,
properties is a simple save file)
