I want to run a HelloWorld JOGL programm on the commandline. I downloaded the .jars from jogamp.org and put the
gluegen-rt.jar , 
jogl.all.jar , 
gluegen-java-src.zip , 
jogl-java-src.zip , 
gluegen-rt-natives-macosx-universal.jar , 
jogl-all-natives-macosx-universal.jar 
in a directory "jar" in my HelloWorld folder - as described in http://jogamp.org/wiki/index.php/Downloading_and_installing_JOGL .
Now I try to compile with
javac -classpath "jar/gluegen-rt.jar:jar/jogl.all.jar" HelloWorld.java 
as described on https://jogamp.org/wiki/index.php/Setting_up_a_JogAmp_project_in_your_favorite_IDE .
Then it throws me 14 errors starting with
HelloWorld.java:7: package javax.media.opengl does not exist
import javax.media.opengl.GL;
                         ^
When I try to compile with absolute paths using
javac -classpath "/Users/jonas/Desktop/cool_jogl/helloworld/jar/gluegen-rt.jar:/Users/jonas/Desktop/cool_jogl/helloworld/jar/jogl-all.jar" HelloWorld.java 
it still throws me 12 errors starting with
HelloWorld.java:9: cannot find symbol
symbol  : class GLCanvas
location: package javax.media.opengl
import javax.media.opengl.GLCanvas;
                         ^
