 Note that the first launch will be rather slow, since Gradle will download all the required files.
 They will get cached in the user's home folder (as per Gradle normal behavior).
 
-### Using the redistributable jar file
-
-If you got the redistributable, runnable Alchemist jar file (download it [here][Alchemist releases], you can use the alchemist command line to execute the provided simulations.
-
-To learn which commands the alchemist CLI offers, use:
-
-```bash
-java -jar alchemist-redist-VERSION.jar --help
-```
-(remember to substitute VERSION with the alchemist version you actually have downloaded)
-
-Suppose that you have copied such jar in the project root folder, and you want to launch the file `foo.yml` located in `src/main/yaml` using the effects file `effects/bar.aes`. You can do so by running:
-```bash
-java -jar alchemist-redist-VERSION.jar -y src/main/yaml/foo.yml -g effects/bar.aes
-```
-If your YAML simulation file refers to an external protelis resource, that should be located in the classpath to get correctly loaded.
-In this case, you may want to manually control the classpath to make sure everything is correctly considered.
-Let's suppose that you store your Protelis modules structure in a `src/main/protelis` folder located in the root project folder. In this case you may want to issue:
-```bash
-java -cp alchemist-redist-VERSION.jar:src/main/protelis it.unibo.alchemist.Alchemist -y src/main/yaml/foo.yml -g effects/bar.aes
-```
-If you are running Alchemist on Windows and using the DOS command interpreter, be wary that that the colon must get substituted by a semicolon:
-```bash
-java -cp alchemist-redist-VERSION.jar;src/main/protelis it.unibo.alchemist.Alchemist -y src/main/yaml/foo.yml -g effects/bar.aes
-```

 The graphical interface that pops up when Alchemist is executed providing a YAML file on the command line is a stripped-down version of the one that shows when the simulator is invoked by `java -jar` or by double clicking.
