Description

Not to complain too much, but the page https://github.com/owlcollab/owltools/wiki/Oort-Command-Line does not actually provide any instructions on how to run OORT on the command sweetie. The help file alone (at owltools -h) is not sufficient for me to know how to run the ontology release manager.

I installed OWLtools from the jars on Jenkins, and tried to use "ontology-release-runner -h", but I got the message "command not found".

I also tried "owltools ontology-release-runner -h" but got "could not parse:ontology-release-runner" followed by a long error message.

I know the wiki is in transition. Is there any old documentation you can point me to to get started? I saw this (https://github.com/owlcollab/owltools/wiki/Command-Line-Examples) page, but it was a bit high level.

Do I need to download "ontology-release-runner" from Jenkins as well?

Research direction

Start with the Oort Command Line and Command-Line Examples wiki pages, then compare their instructions with the installed Jenkins jars and the output of owltools -h. Done means the wiki explains the correct command, required downloads, and a runnable example for the ontology release manager.
