Installation

The shareware version of Detagger is made available over the web from the download page. Once you register you can download the full version (no nags, no limits), and are entitled to free upgrades for an arbitrary (equals "my decision is final") period of time.

Installation will vary according to the type of install kit you've downloaded, but in each case you first download the .zip file appropriate to your system and unzip.

Windows installation

The current version of the software makes updates to your Registry. See the Install notes that come with the software for a description of the registry settings used.

Installing the Windows GUI version

The standard installations use InnoSetup to offer install and uninstall options. To use this version, unzip the file and then run the Setup program. This will move the files to a directory, and create all icons etc.

Once installed, InnoSetup will also offer an uninstall option. You can access this via Control Panel | Add/remove software.

Installing the console version

The console version simply comes in a .zip file. The documentation is not included as this is the same as the Windows version.

Simply unzip the console version to the folder of your choice.


OpenVMS version of Detagger

Sorry. No VMS distribution is planned at this time.

That said, the software is largely developed under VMS, so if there is enough interest this may change. Email info<at>jafsoft.com if you're interested (replace the "<at>" by "@").
