This page will help you install Simba and highlight some basic Simba features.
Installing Simba is pretty straighforward and will only take a couple of minutes.
Everyone can download Simba at http://wizzup.org/simba/ Go to download and download the Simba installer.
Once it is done downloading, simply run the installer and follow the steps.
Note
Simba will install to C:/ by default; if you want to install it somewhere else, make sure you select a different location! If you are running Windows Vista or Windows 7, then you will probably want to install it to C:/ or another place; as long as writing in the actual directory does not require administrator permissions. C:/ is a safe bet.
You can install Simba to your Program Files directory, but you will have to run Simba as administrator in that case.
Simba will probably tell you there is an update available. In this case, an update button will appear. Click it and the Simba Updater will show up. Alternatively you can update Simba using Tools -> Update.
Note
Updating Simba regularly is recommended.
This is harder and not recommended. Steps on how to do this will follow later.
For now, simply stick to the installer and update Simba after the install has completed.
If you were using the Simba installer then you can simply enable the SRL Updater extension. (Go to View -> Extensions and enable srl.sex)
See Simba Extensions for more information on Extensions.
This is the only supported way. You can simply do a svn checkout on the srl repository, but if you can do that, then you should be able to set up SRL yourself as well.
Scripts can be downloaded with the Script Manager, in Tools -> Script Manager.
Note
The Script Manager is not finished yet.
If you run into problems that are not mentioned here, make sure you look at the Troubleshooting page.
