The FreeRaider home page contains the latest development and official releases of FreeRaider. Here is a small note about the difference between the official and the development (beta) releases: both the official and development versions are actually alpha. The difference is that the official release should be more stable and will be easier to get working as all documentation and makefiles are up-to-date. The development release will probably have more features but it may not work very well on your particular system, it may not work at all, or you might not be able to compile it. But the development release may also work very well. You never know.
The FreeRaider home page is located at:
http://freeraider.sourceforge.net/
The FreeRaider Developer's Project page is located at:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/freeraider/
The released FreeRaider packages can be downloaded directly via FTP from the following locations:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=1207
FreeRaider is being actively developed. You can download bleeding-edge versions of the project from the CVS repository where the absolute latest copy is stored. There are two ways to access the developmental version of the project.
First, you can access the CVS repository directly via a CVS tool. Instructions for doing so may be found here:
http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=1207
Second, you can download a snapshot of the CVS repository using HTTP or FTP. Snapshots are generated daily and are accompanied by standard `diff'-style patch files.
ftp://freeraider.sourceforge.net/pub/freeraider/cvs-snapshots/
You can also view the contents of the CVS repository online including all of the historical information and administrative information.
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/CS/?cvsroot=freeraider
Documentation is included with the FreeRaider distribution. You can read the FreeRaider User's Manual with your web browser by loading the file `CS/apps/fr/doc/html/index.htm', as well as the FreeRaider Public API Reference Manual by viewing the file `CS/apps/fr/doc/pubapi/index.htm'.
Documentation is also available for online viewing. The FreeRaider User's Manual is available for online viewing at this location:
http://freeraider.sourceforge.net/docs/online/manual/
The Public API Reference Manual, for programmers utilizing FreeRaider, is available for online viewing here:
http://freeraider.sourceforge.net/docs/online/pubapi/
The Developer's API Reference Manual, for programmers actually working on FreeRaider itself, is available here:
http://freeraider.sourceforge.net/docs/online/devapi/
In addition, all of the above documents may be downloaded for offline viewing via HTTP or FTP from the following locations, and are packaged with a variety of compression technologies, including BZIP2, GZIP, and ZIP.
http://freeraider.sourceforge.net/docs/download/ - not yet
ftp://freeraider.sourceforge.net/pub/freeraider/docs/download/ - not yet
Currently these documents are only available in HTML format, but may someday be available as PDF, PostScript, and possibly other formats as well.
Developers can generate their own copies of these manuals from the FreeRaider source package by invoking certain makefile targets. The User's Manual can be built as various output formats by invoking any of the targets `frhtmldoc', `frpsdoc', `frpdfdoc', and `frinfodoc'.
The Public API Reference Manual and Developer's API Reference Manual can be generated in HTML format by invoking the `frpubapi' and `frdevapi' makefile targets, respectively.
These makefile targets place the generated output in subdirectories of `CS/out/fr/docs'. The hierarchy of subdirectories mirrors that of `CS/fr/docs' where the master copies of these documents are kept.
