### Mac on 64-bit Intel
|

</summary>
|
|
In a terminal window,
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ cd /usr/local/bin
|
|
$ curl -LOC- https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/releases/download/A.BB/hledger-mac-x64.zip

|
### Windows on 64-bit Intel
|
|
</summary>
|
|
|
|
In a powershell window (press Windows-r, type powershell, press enter),
|
|
|
|
Make a place to keep hledger binaries, and add it to your PATH. You only need to do this once, not for every release. This is optional, but makes running hledger easier.
|
|
```
|
|
mkdir -force $HOME\bin >$null
|
|
[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("Path", [Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable("Path", [EnvironmentVariableTarget]::User)+";"+$HOME+"\bin", [EnvironmentVariableTarget]::User)
|
|
```
|
|
Download and install the release binaries:
|
|
```
|
|
cd $HOME\bin
|
|
curl https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/releases/download/A.BB/hledger-windows-x64.zip -OutFile hledger-windows-x64.zip
|
|
Expand-Archive hledger-windows-x64.zip -DestinationPath .
|
|
rm hledger-windows-x64.zip
|
|
cd $HOME
|
|
hledger --version # should show the new version
|
|
```
|
|
And ensure a default journal file exists:
|
|
```
|
|
echo $null | out-file -append -encoding ascii $HOME/.hledger.journal
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Problems:
|
|
- Starting hledger/hledger-web by double-clicking their icon won't work; run them from a cmd or powershell window instead.

|
### Windows 7 on 64-bit Intel, using Firefox
|
|
</summary>
|
|
|
|
- click hledger-windows-x64.zip below
|
|
- choose Open with Windows Explorer, OK
|
|
- click Extract all files
|
|
- choose a destination folder - ideally one that appears in `echo %PATH%`, like `C:\Windows` (though that one will require administrator permission); otherwise, your home directory (`C:\Users\YOURNAME`)
|
|
- check "Show extracted files when complete"
|
|
- click Extract, wait for the destination folder to open
|
|
- find the hledger, hledger-web icons (if you extracted to `\Windows`, you'll need to scroll down)
|
|
- for each icon: double-click, uncheck "Always ask before opening this file", click Run
|
|
- close those Explorer windows
|
|
- open a command window (press Windows-r, type CMD, press enter)
|
|
- `hledger --version` should show the new version
|
|
- `echo # >> .hledger.journal` to ensure a default journal file exists. (Important: the doubled **>>** is needed to avoid overwriting existing data.)
|
|
|
|
Problems:
|
|
- Starting hledger by double-clicking its icon won't work because it needs arguments; run it from the command window instead.
|
|
- Starting hledger-web by double-clicking its icon may fail eg because Explorer's command window is too small;
|
|
configure that to be larger, or run hledger-web from a command window instead.
|
|
- hledger or hledger-web may fail to run if there is not enough memory available.
