Yes.

Yes. To avoid having to maintain dozens of pages I'd suggest a page
per platform and within that, a section per language. Or vice versa
if the primary authors are the binding authors.

I'm not sure I know what I'm saying either but it's this example:
"$ java -Djava.library.path=/usr/local/lib -classpath
/home/user/zeromq/libjzmq/:./local_lat tcp://127.0.0.1:5555 1 100"
which apparently needs 'main' before the 'local_lat'...? Probably
just confusion on the part of the guys involved. They were working on
Windows fwiw.
