You can open .jar with 7-zip, which is free btw, and many other programs.

.jar files are realy renamed zipfiles.
Open it with winzip, winrar, pkunzip or whatever.
thanks for the help!
?? If by 'view' you mean 'run' then if you have your LWGL libraries installed properly and your classpath set correctly then all you have to do is the following :

java -jar jarfile.jar

thats assuming that there's a manifest and a class with a main method in the jars (Haven't looked at LWGL myself, i use JOGL). if not then theres bound to be some reference as to which class to run in the jar to run the demo.
