Placing the tool class file
Tool manager scans through given folders for class files. If scanned class file implements tool interface the class is accepted as a Wandora tool. Tool manager seeks tool classes in class paths specified in the Tool manager's Paths tab. By default the Tool manager seeks tool classes in package org/wandora/application/tools.
If you add new path to Tool manager make sure the path is also Java's class path. To change class path's of Wandora you need to edit bin/SetClasspath.bat and bin/SetClasspath.sh.
Unfortunately Wandora does not scan tool classes in jar or zip packages.
