So I actually used GroovyScriptEngine, meaning a few more lines of code, and not quite the same flexibility. It is very annoying that jars only read their own classpath, otherwise running scripts would be easy without a launcher.

Now, how about placing the *.groovy scripts INSIDE the jar file? That becomes a bit more problematic. It would be a better solution to just distribute one file.
