Hello all. This message is directed mainly toward Bruce, but if anyone else has any suggestions, please feel free to contribute. For a while now, I have been using Athena and Artemis on my work computer with a broadband internet connection, and all the updates have auto-detected and installed without a hitch. The problem is that now, I want to use the programs on my home computer, for which I am simply too cheap to buy anything better than dialup service. The updater, unfortunately, has choked several times when trying to download and install the 9 updates it says I need. (In fact, one time the echo screen stated that all the updates were installed, but when I restarted and opened Athena and Artemis, I was confronted with the old versions of the programs.) I haven't seen any "new and fully updated windows installers" on either Matt's or Bruce's pages, and it isn't clear to me how to get at the update files without the assistance of the updater itself. (I seem to recall reading that one can simply unzip the ifup_00x.zip file in the Ifeffit directory, run make_bats.exe, and all will be well.) Is there a way I can use the broadband connection at school to grab the updates and install them myself on the home computer without the use of the updater? Or, is there a place that the updater stores the .zip files after it's done updating the program, so I can just grab them off the work computer? Thanks for your help! -Dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- North Carolina State University Dept. of Physics 2700 Stinton Dr. Box 8202 Raleigh, NC 27695 Ph: 919-515-5017 Fax:919-515-7331 email: dabaker@unity.ncsu.edu ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --
