Misleading/incomplete installation instructions
This has been mentioned before on this forum, but I fell a victim yesterday and feel the need to bump the topic.
On the website, it says:

It is really simple to get started with MigLayout. All you need to do is to download the correct .jar from above and add it to you classpath. That's it!
That's not enough, especially if you are working at the command line. I lost a few hours while "fixing" my classpath, reinstalling MigLayout, pulling my hair, etc. Finally, after a deep Google I found the "fix" here:

import net.miginfo.com.swing.MigLayout
import javax.swing.*

I propose the following change:

Code:
