 Installation of the Proton+ Compiler Beta update version 3.4.0.5

The following steps will install the Proton update without overwriting the existing compiler version.

(Step 1)
 ** Very Important **
The IDE needs to be replaced with the newer versions (version 2.0.0.4):

(Step 1.1)
Make a backup of the ProtonIDE folder, located within the "Program Files" directory.

(Step 1.2)
Uninstall the ProtonIDE using Control Panel->Add Remove Programs

(Step 1.3)
Delete the ProtonIDE folder and all it's contents.

(Step 2)
Unzip the file "Proton+ Ver 3.4.0.5 Beta.zip" into a convenient place on your hard drive. i.e. "C:\Temp"
This will create a folder of the same name.

Open the newly created folder "Proton+ Ver 3.4.0.5 Beta" and you will find it contains 1 folder and 2 files:

PDS
ProtonIDE Setup 2.0.0.4.exe
Proton 3.4.0.5 Beta Readme.htm

(Step 3)
Run the ProtonIDE Setup 2.0.0.4.exe. This will create the new (Vista compliant) IDE at the same location as the previous version.

(Step 4)
** Important **
Backup (using Winzip, WinRar or something similar) the original "PDS" folder located in the default location "C:\Program Files\Crownhill".
This will ensure that you do not overwrite the existing compiler. Then Delete the original PDS folder.

(Step 5)
Copy the new Beta folder "PDS" into Folder "C:\Program Files\Crownhill", if this is the location of your compiler.
Note that "C:\Program Files\Crownhill" is the default location of the compiler.
