Javaism - Java is not very good about sharing anything, at least, that's
one of my operating assumptions. I guess you're running a free-standing
Jython implementation. It won't know anything about Moneydance.
I haven't installed Moneydance's Jython extension in years, so you may find
flaws here, but these steps should guide you pretty well.
1) Start Moneydance
2) You need to download the "Python interface" extension.
Click on the gear in the upper right corner, click on "Add extension".
3) That pops up a window, select "from the internet" and Next.
4) Select "Python interface"(?) and next.
I already have it loaded, so I don't see it. You should see it, it should
download and get added to Moneydance.
5) Click on the gear again an now you should see "Python interface". Click.
6) That will open the "Python console" window.
