[merlin] composition tutorial

[Steve Harris <st...@kenamea.com>]

Doing what the readme says does not result in a working example.

i.e.
it says to compile by doing maven build. This does nothing. typing
just maven does build it.

i.e. 2

it says to run it using:

merlin target\*.jar -system %MAVEN_HOME% -execute

however I get an error saying -system is not valid.
Haven't figured out yet how to get around this.

I updated this is CVS a couple of days ago but have not pushed it onto 
the site yet.

Can you do me a favour an note down the page references where you find 
things like this.  In the meantime there is a special command that 
simplifies execution of merlin relative to the maven repo:

$ merlinx -execute target\*.jar

(note the x following merlin - its a handy little utility to save typing).
Just for reference -system was replaced with -repository.
The latest greatest info about the command line can be discovered using:

$ merlin -help

Cheers, Steve.
