Changes in Release 10 (February 2008)

† Note for MacOSX: occasionally a browser decides to display the contents of the .dmg.gz archive file rather than downloading it. If this happens hold down the <control> key and click on the download link. A popup menu should appear, containing several choices. One of the choices should be something like "Save Link As" (or perhaps "Download Link...", "Save Link to Desktop", or a variation on this theme). Select that option, and the file should be download correctly.

‡ Note for Windows: you may need to shift-click on this link to downlaod the file. Also please ensure that after downloading this file is called "artemis_v10.jar" with no other hidden extensions. Some windows systems change the name so it looks like a zip file, if this happens then do not unzip it just rename it to "artemis_v10.jar".

Once downloaded on a Windows machine, the compiled versions are ready to run (assuming you have the appropriate version of Java installed). UNIX and MacOSX users will need to unpack the archive first (see the manual for details).
