Hi, Roy!
If you are familiar with Maven you may try this click maven
archetype(it is the template for Click Start Guide[1] ):

svn checkout http://construtor.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/maven-archetype-click
mca
cd mca
mvn clean install    [INSTALL IT LOCALLY]
cd ..
mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeCatalog=local     [CREATE A NEW CLICK PROJECT]
... complete the arguments
groupId : com.company
artifactId : my-sample-click
version : 1.0-SNAPSHOT
package : com.company.app
...
Then ..
cd my-sample-click
mvn jetty:run               [RUN THE APP]

The menu control are not enabled by default, but you can enable it per
http://localhost:8080/home.htm instructions.

Hth,

Gilberto
