The problem is that either all of those have to be unpacked, or they have 
to be listed in the file "webFunctionsList.dat" in the .jar, which must be 
generated using the function "createfunctionslist".

In our (unfortunately failed) GSoC project for Fiji (the student was just 
not able to properly analyze the source code, let alone the challenges of 
the project), we wanted to provide a way which reads the .jar file 
directly, avoiding the need for a file webFunctionsList.dat.  That would 
have allowed us to make an embedded interpreter with new functions 
provided by us.

It is in the class jmathlib.ui.text.TextUI.
