I had no idea that all that was involved. Thank you for the explanation.

Just scroll down the page and you'll see it. Simply "git clone" the appropriate repository (Windows or Linux) and enter the appropriate command, and Voilà! Instant Hercules! I believe the default for Hercules Helper is to always build the latest and greatest development version of Hercules. So the first thing you will need is "git": the tool that allows you to clone git source code repositories. Once you have that on your system, then you simply clone the Windows or Linux version of "Hercules Helper", and follow the previously mentioned instructions. That's it! Hercules Helper will handle everything else. It will install Microsoft Visual Studio if needed, clone the appropriate Hercules source code repository, and walk you through, step by step, with building Hercules for you. IN SUMMARY: Step 1: install git on your system. Step 2: use git to clone Hercules Helper. Step 3: read the Hercules Helper web page to learn what command you need to enter. Step 4: enter that command. Step 5: take a coffee break while Hercules Helper does its thing. Step 6: Begin using your newly built Hercules! Easy peasy. -- "Fish" (David B.
