Use the ConfigurationManager instead:

 java edu.utah.janos.nodeos.Main ants.core.ConfigurationManager <config
file> <node name>

The config file can then set everything up and start applications.  See
ants/scripts/*.config for examples of config files.

If you want to start an application while a node is running, well, thats a
bit harder.  You need to edit PrimordialNode.java and uncomment
`startConsole(node, consolePort)'.  Then start the node with the
`-consoleport' argument which is a port number.  You can then telnet into
that port and type `app <class name>' to start it up.  Although, we
haven't done this in a while so it might not work.
