Mmkay, I've set up that thing on github I was talking about earlier. It's just my pristine Runtime and the Docs folder for now - the same you would get with a release, but now you can also see what happens in between releases. I might add other files by and by while working on them, which you normally wouldn't see. But I have to be a bit careful, I guess. My own local git repository on my harddisk is half a Gig, and I can't imagine the github people would be cool with that kind of data volume. :laugh:

As I said earlier, you don't need to know or use git if you just download from there once in a blue moon. Just follow the link and click on the button saying 'Download Source' near the upper right corner. You can then choose between a ZIP and a compressed TAR file.

Your download will come with a long wacky name including a number. When you unpack the ZIP (or TAR), you'll get a folder with a similar name, also including the same number. That number is the so-called commit number. If you encounter a problem, that number will tell me exactly which version you were using, so it will be easier for me to figure out what's going on. Long story short: don't rename that folder, or at least copy its original name to a safe place. 😉

If you find yourself perusing github frequently, you should probably acquaint yourself with git. If nothing else, it's a courtesy to the github people who host this stuff for free and whose bandwidth would get unnecessarily strained if people did full downloads all the time.
