Binary Installation

Do one of the following:

  1. Workbench menu bar:

    1.3. Extensions > Manage Extensions...
    1.4. Click the check box next to the extension you want to activate.
  2. ACT Start Page:

    2.3. In the upper right corner, click the "+" button.
    2.4. Select the binary file.
    2.5. The new extension should be added as a grey block into the collection of extensions. Simply click on it to load it (will unload after you close Workbench), or click on the upside-down triangle on the bottom right corner of the extension block and select "Load as default" to have it permanently loaded.

Directory Association

  1. Download the contents of this repo into a dedicated folder
