Question #171313 on Sikuli changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/sikuli/+question/171313

Description changed to:
**** current status of extension Guide

-- extensions download in Sikuli IDE (menu Tools) is currently not
working, so you cannot get guide.jar the official way

-- the version, that was the base for the docs , is no longer available.
The developer has continued to work on it, but the docs have not yet
been updated.

-- I have a version from June 2011, that I have built from source and
that works with rc3.

-- on Windows 7 you have to put guide.jar into the folder C:\Users\<user-name>\AppData\Roaming\Sikuli\extensions (the directory should already exist, but is empty). On other Windows, you have to find out, what directory Sikuli is using for that.
On Mac it is searched in ~/Library/Application Support/Sikuli/extensions.

-- usage
If you have put guide.jar in the appropriate location, just write in your script:

from guide import *

and you can use the features

-- feature docs
as mentioned, the docs are not up to date. The best way is to look into guide.py for the methods you can use and their parameters. It is just trial and error ;-) but if you succeed, it will help a lot with your scripts.

-- where to get it

(version for RC3):
I have a zip file on Dropbox, that contains the mentioned guide.jar and the guide.py 
(which is actually extracted from this guide.jar).
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/42895525/SikuliGuide.zip

(version for RC2):
You can download the Guide version January 2011 (compatible with the docs):
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/42895525/SikuliGuide-rc2.zip
Be aware: runs only with RC2 !

Hope it helps. Come back, if you really do not get on the road and
before getting a nervous breakdown ;-)

Hello, 
After installed the Sikuli X-1.0rc3 (r905), I met the same problem mentioned in the Question #162210 (Extension - not getting loaded).
I'm using Windows XP SP3.
I have 2 questions:
1. Is it a client or server problem for XP system can not install the extensions? How to solve it?
2. The old extension Guide which was installed with 1.0rc2 are still in my computer, is it possible install it to 1.0rc3 manully? Because without this extension, my old Sikuli scripts can not be run in the 1.0rc3.

Thanks!
