Someone more familiar with Macs help me out here....

You need a terminal window and a prompt. At the prompt, on a PC at least,
you type

java -jar jmol.jar -h

That starts the program and assumes that the path to "java.exe" is known to
the system. If you can get that working, then you start Jmol using

 java -jar jmol.jar -g600x600

and you should be good to go.

This worked for me. I typed " java -jar " in Terminal and then dragged the Jmol.jar file in the Finder into the Terminal window to avoid having to type the full path.
