When screen-scraper normally updates itself it downloads a zip file from our server, decompresses it, copies the files it contains on top of the existing files, then updates its version number. You'll instead need to do this manually. To do so follow these steps:

1. Download the update file. The URL for the udpate you'll need can be generated for you using our updater form.
2. Decompress it.
3. Copy the contents on top of your existing screen-scraper files.
4. Edit the "Version" property of your "resource/conf/screen-scraper.properties" file so that it reflects the new version.

The next time you launch screen-scraper you'll have the updated version.

We're in the process of creating a browser-based interface for screen-scraper that will allow you to update screen-scraper without having to go through this manual process.
