You have to keep the Filename short, then the download will start automatically. A lot of people, including me, were confused because there is no explanation on where to find the downloaded java file. It always says it downloaded a java file even though it doesnt. The quality of the generated file is as accurate as you might expect from an automatic generator but its still useful.
