[committed] Another week another missing lwjgl natives thread

archive contribution-depot-jme2

I propose a small change to the Abstract game error handling that hopefully might put an end to the neverending list of "java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no lwjgl in java.library.path" questions.

I have added a page to the wiki that details how to avoid this problem, and have added an exception handler to Abstract game that displays a message pointing to this page.

Hopefully it will help ( the page may need some work, but its a start for now )

As im not sure what the commit criteria is at the moment - and nobody has objected to this yet - can someone commit this for me?

Do you have any good reason why I shouldn't just give you developer access on google code?..

Nope, not good enough.
