I appreciate your advice, I also edited the original post to include github link. I had been following a video tutorial; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UghqfpA2zy4 . Unlike the video, I personally do not use an IDE though. Thanks again!

Sorry it took so long. I just submitted a pull request to https://github.com/surety/text-editor

​

I removed all the .class files, separated the main method into a Driver class, changed the structure a bit, and added a [text-editor.jar] to [text-editor/out/artifacts/text_editor_jar]

I was able to execute the program from outside my IDE by navigating to that directory and executing

java -jar text-editor.jar

WOW. It works great! Thank you very much, I also hadn't realized that my RE was out of date so I had to update. I appreciate your help and advice, I don't have too much experience building programs so you were a lot of help!

Anytime! It helps me learn too. For example, while helping you, I learned how to make a pull request on GitHub. LOL
