HMGS-IDE Project Manager and Two-Way Visual Form Designer

Post by Anand »

Being Clipper programmer, I am more at home in command line and am happy.
But have read a lot about HMGS-IDE Project Manager and Two-Way Visual Form Designer and finally took the plunge.

First I tried the menu "help > update". It made a new folder "updates\" and downloaded all files in it.

It is obvious that the old ide and related files should be overwritten. Should I do it manually ? Or is there any menu command to do it ?

Anand

Well yes.

The IDE can be found in MiniGUI Extended folder. The folder created under it with all files, exe, prg, chm etc.

Now my query is "should I copy the files from the 'updates' folder manually overwriting the old ones ?
Or is there a menu for it ?

Well, not getting any reply, I started comparing the downloaded codes with existing ones and to my surprise the downloaded ones are older !!
