You can update to this version by typing:
doomtools --update
All releases require Java 8 or higher. The CMD release is for Windows systems, the Bash ones for MacOS/Linux/Cygwin/WSL.
Extract either distribution appropriate for your system and point your PATH environment variable to it, or you may use the provided Windows Installers, if you are using Windows.
Installer Notes
If you choose NOT to add DoomTools to your system PATH in the installer, you can still access the tools in the command line using the DoomTools CMD shortcut that it creates in the Start Menu, which will add DoomTools to PATH for that shell session.
Uninstalling reverses all changes to PATH and/or Explorer Shell, if chosen during install. The JRE version will embed a minified JRE in DoomTools, should you also choose to do so. If you install a JRE/JDK separately for your system, it will not affect DoomTools's embedded JRE, nor will DoomTools's embedded JRE affect your Java install.
