Hi,
I've just downloaded the boost zip file and unzipped it.
Anyway I'm at the stage of downloading the Kicad source files.
I have a few questions as I'm a newbie at compiling large programs
from source.
1/ What is the method you and others use for creating SVN snapshots
from the source tree? For instance how did you compile the recent r780
snapshot at the sourceforge website?
Each file has a different revision number so how do you know that
everthing works together? 
2/ How would I use something like TortoiseSVN to get the source files
onto my local PC?

Sorry for all the questions.

Thanks.

David
