To download our software, click on the link for the newest version for your operating system from the list below. Always choose the newest version because the versions are backwards compatible, and we add improvements with each vew version. You can optionally also check the checksum using the code at bottom below.

To check the checksum for each download, you can complete the following steps to run the python program below:

1. Download the compressed release file you want from one of the links above.
2. Paste the python code given below into a new file named checksumChecker.py located in the same directory as the compressed release file you just downloaded in step one.
3. Paste the name of the compressed release file you downloaded into the value for the compressedReleaseFileName variable in the code below.
4. Paste the value for the official checksum from the list above into the value for the officialCheckSum variable in the code below.
5. Run the code below to confirm whether or not the checksum in your download matches the official checksum. You can run the code below by navigating the commandline to the directory in which the compressed release file and the python program are located and then typing a command like python checksumChecker.py

    import os
    import hashlib
    #Replace the values in the next 2 lines with the values for the version and OS of the distribution you need.
    compressedReleaseFileName="<name-of-compressed-release-file>"
    officialCheckSum="<value-of-official-checksum>"
    if os.path.isfile(compressedReleaseFileName):
      with open(compressedReleaseFileName, "rb") as f:
        file_hash = hashlib.md5()
        while chunk := f.read(8192):
            file_hash.update(chunk)
      print("Checksum for the release zip is: ", file_hash.hexdigest()) # to get a printable str instead of bytes
      print("Official checksum is: ", officialCheckSum)
      if officialCheckSum == file_hash.hexdigest():
        print("MATCH! Checksum is correct.")
      else:
        print("ERROR:  Checksum of downloaded file does not match the official checksum. ")
    else: 
      errMess = "There is no file named "+compressedReleaseFileName+" in "+os.getcwd()
      raise ValueError(errMess)
