USAGE:
- In REAPER, load the script:
Go to Actions, Show Actions list... and click "New action..." "Load Reascript..." and select the file "HeDaScripts Manager.lua". Now you can run the action or make a toolbar button (icon included in the Data folder) and the HeDaScripts Manager window appears and downloads the list of scripts available to install/upgrade. - Before clicking the install button on a script in the list, you can click on the version button which downloads the changelog with details of the version.
- After clicking the install button, it downloads the files needed, extracts them to the correct location and adds the needed actions to REAPER. The script becomes green (installed) ready to use.
- The script is now installed and one or several actions are added in the REAPER actions list. The Manager also installs some icons for the scripts ready to use for the toolbars. You can find them in the Data/toolbar_icons folder.
- To uninstall a script, simply click the uninstall button, and the actions are removed from REAPER and the folder of the script is renamed, not deleted. You can delete them manually if you want.
- All downloads are managed by curl , if you are using a firewall, make sure you allow connections for curl. It comes preinstalled on most operating systems.
