What is the easiest way to download the following. I am not familiar with code.google and cod repositories, and I couldn't find a .zip or .rar to download the latest:
http://code.google.com/p/multipilot32/source/browse/#svn%2Fbranches%2FRedfox74
I am not intending to fly, just check out and study code and play with sensors from Oilpan.
Thanks,
JimT

Hi JimT,
The tutorial Roberto mentioned is more useful for people committing code rather than a simple code checkout.
It's really fairly easy to graphically download code on a Windows machine with tortise.
1) Download and try to install tortise. The installation menu will warn you about needing to have SVN installed on your computer.
2) I followed the link suggested by the tortise installer to download and install the version of SVN it would be sure to like.
3) Install tortise again, this time with SVN present on your computer. ;-)
Now to download some files from code.google.com. :-)
1) Open Windows Explorer.
2) Create a new folder somewhere on your drive for the soon-to-be downloaded software.
3) Select your new folder location.
4) Right click your mouse. You should see two new selections in the dialog box, SVN Checkout and TortiseSVN.
5) Select SVN Checkout. (This changes to SVN Update after the first download into a particular directory.)
6) In the top dialog box paste: http://multipilot32.googlecode.com/svn
7) Hit the "..." button to the right of the dialog box, and you should be able to choose as many or as few branches to download as you would like.
I thought I did that, but pasted the url for read-only and it returned an error. I will try you outline above tonight.
My next question: What is the safest/most effective way for me to remove the svn reference that I currently have in place. I don't want to delete or commit anything to the repo by accident.
