what about nightly builds?? How do you remove rc2??

[code2d]

Hello this is my first time on these forums. (I usaully stay in cproggramming.com forum). My question is about nightly builds. It seems that you just unzip the zips and overwrite the files in the code::blocks folder in program files. My question is how do you exactly

just remove RC2.

mentioned in the "how to use nightly build" in the nightly builds forum. It says that you should not have rc2 installed when inputing nightly builds. Do you download a older version like rc1???

Thanks for any help.

It seems that you just unzip the zips and overwrite the files in the code::blocks folder in program files.

Actually, it's best not to install a nightly build over any existing C::B installation. Starting with an empty directory will ensure that old files don't mess up your installation. Don't worry about losing your settings for a nightly build -- they're saved elsewhere (in your local user Application Data folder). RC2 settings will be lost.

Ok I seemed to have built it but it says that I need xp or a nt/2000 OS because it uses unicode??

I forget to say that I am running on windows ME.

Under windows 9x/Me it is usual to use an ANSI build of Code::Blocks.

sethjackson is the person who normally creates the ANSI builds, his last was linked in thread http://forums.next.codeblocks.org/index.php?topic=5013.0

Note: If you want a newer nightly build, I would be willing to make one once the directory redesign is done and if you are willing to test it. Note, I do NOT have an system to test it on, I can build a single new ANSI build ever so often on my XP machine.
