CodeSnip Files

================================================================================

About CodeSnip Files on SourceForge. (Applies to CodeSnip v4.16.0 and later)

================================================================================

*** NOTE: CodeSnip v4.15.1 and earlier are no longer supported. ***

The CodeSnip project's files on SourceForge are organised as follows:

  * Each of the later releases has its own directory named Release-9.9.9 where
    9.9.9 is the version number of the release. In each of these directories are
    archives of both executable and source code files in .zip format. The latest
    release will be stored in the directory with the most recent version numner.

  * Some old releases are grouped together in directories named Release-9.9.x
    where 9.9 represents the major and minor release numbers. Archives 
    containing source and executable code for each of the revisions relating to 
    that release are provided. 

  * The earliest releases have directories using the same Release-9.9.x naming
    convention as above but the directories may contain only source code
    archives, or possibly nothing except a read-me file explaining how to get
    the source.

In each directory are three files:
  
    codesnip-exe-9.9.9.zip
      - contains the "standard" edition installer + read-me file
      
    codesnip-portable-exe-9.9.9.zip
      - contains the executable program, help file, read-me file and other 
        documentation for the "portable" edition.
        
    codesnip-src-9.9.9.zip
      - contains source code used to build the executable files (both "standard"
        and "portable" editions are compiled from the same source).
    
"9.9.9" represents the actual version number. For special releases, such as
previews or beta releases, some text may be appended to the version number.

If you are intending to install CodeSnip please use the latest available
version.

If you want to install and use CodeSnip on one computer, where the data files
are stored on the hard disk you need the "standard" edition. The program is
installed for all users and each use can maintain their own data.

If you want to install the program onto removable storage for use on more than
one computer you need the "portable" edition. This edition stores user data with
the program on the removable storage device.

Source code archives are provided here as a convenience. You can also get source
from the project's Git repository at

  https://github.com/delphidabbler/codesnip
	
You can get various versions of the source code:

  1 Choose the "tag" relating to the version you are interested in.
	
	2 Switch to the "master" branch to get the code of the latest release.
	
	3 Switch to the "develop" branch to get the latest development code. This code
	  will not be released and may be unstable).

For info about building CodeSnip from source see the file "Build.html" in the
repository root directory.
