Hello Carlos -
I have discussed this issue several times on the mailing list
(www.starport.net/~radiator). My suggestion is always to create a new
directory for every version of Radiator.
In your situation I would do this:
create a top-level directory for Radiator
mkdir F:\Radiator
cd to that directory
cd F:\Radiator
download the distributions to this directory
unzip each distribution in this directory
This way you will keep the versions seperate and you can change from one to
another much more easily.
cd F:\Radiator\Radiator-2.18
cd F:\Radiator\Radiator-2.18.1
etc..
