I'm puffing pretty hard trying to catch on to what's up with JMRI. I have
downloaded Decoder Pro and now JMRI.1.0.5.exe The extracted JMRI.1.0.5.exe
put files in my JMRI folder (running WinME). But the JMRI.1.0.5_Readme
talks about changing some files in some folders.
How you update depends on which type of computer you've got. If it's some form of Windows, just run the .exe file.
If you're using Linux, Macintosh or OS/2, the .exe file isn't going to do you any good. Instead, you take the .zip file, unpack it to create a folder, and move the files into place by hand. Hopefully I'll be able to create a Macintosh installer to automate that process Real Soon Now, but I don't know how to do that for Linux or OS/2.
Note that the 1.0.5 update et al is really intended for testing; as you've seen in the Yahoo group, those updates occasionally backfire for some people.
And I'm lost. Can you point me to someplace that can give me an overview
of this project?
The best overview we've got is:
or for the DecoderPro part:
For installing the original program, but not the update, please see:
It would be great if somebody wanted to write some better documentation. A manual, even a very basic one, would be _really_ great.
