Powered by Subversion version 1.4.5 (r25188).

So now what? I've never used version control software before. Do I need
to download a subversion client?

That particular URL isn't really meant for browsing. It is meant to be used by a Subversion client to checkout the source. However, if you don't want to do that at this point, then you can go to the source browser[1] and download a zip file.

[1] http://www.dsource.org/projects/derelict/browser/branches/Derelict2

This is the web interface to the repository. There, at the bottom of the page, you'll see a link "Zip Archive". Clicking that will auto-generate a zip file that will then download. Once you extract that, you'll wind up with the source tree in a directory with a long name. I suggest you rename it to 'derelict'.

Next, you need to make sure DMD is on your path. Then you can open up a command prompt and follow the directions in the Derelict docs for compilation.

If you need help beyond that point, please ask over in the Derelict forum and I'll see what I can do to assist.



Thanks for all the help. Derelict is a great project.
