     44== 4. Installing Cantalon stuff
     45In their infinite wisdom, WPI decided to unbundle any library that interfaces with actual stuff a couple months before build. I can't see anything going wrong with that. Because of this, you have to download the cantalon library manually from CTR's site.

     471. Download the Cantalon libraries from [http://www.ctr-electronics.com//downloads/lib/CTRE_FRCLibs_NON-WINDOWS_v4.4.1.9.zip] (up to date as of 1/14/17)
     482. Merge the java/lib folder in the archive with the JDK lib folder. This should be in C:\Documents and Settings\[user] on Windows or your home folder on Linux. If you use Mac OS X, you're going to have to install a decent operating system on your computer.

     50== 5. Creating a FRC Java Project
    45511. In Eclipse, right-click in the open space in the Package Explorer and select {{{New >}}}, and then inside the sub-menu that pops up, select {{{Project...}}}. Selecting {{{Java Project...}}} will not work.
    46522. Under {{{WPILib Robot Java Development}}}, select {{{Robot Java Project}}}.
