Installing the Select Range Plugin
==================================

1) Start with untaring the file into the plugins directory.
   Here is a example for the 3.7 version of the Select
   Range plugin.

  $ cd plugins
  $ tar -zxvf select_range-3.7-1.4.4.tar.gz

2) If using SquirrelMail 1.5.2 or above or shift-click
   and better link placement is not needed, skip to step four.
   Otherwise, continue to step three.

3) Patch your SquirrelMail source code.  Two simple hooks
   are added to the source for enhanced plugin functionality.
   Make sure you use the patch file that pertains to your
   version (or the closest one available) of SquirrelMail.
   Make sure you execute the patch from the select_range
   plugin directory.

  $ cd select_range
  $ patch -p0 < patch/select_range-squirrelmail_1.4.14.diff

   Note for Windows users: you can get native patch
   functionality by installing this very useful package:
   http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/

4) If you do not want to change the default behavior of this
   plugin, skip to step six.

5) (OPTIONAL) Decide if you want to store the plugin
   configuration file in the plugin directory or in
   the main SquirrelMail config directory.

   A) To store the configuration file in the plugin
      directory, change into the select_range directory,
      copy config_example.php to config.php and edit
      config.php, making adjustments as you deem necessary.

     ----- optional -----
     $ cd select_range
     $ cp config_example.php config.php
     $ vi config.php
     ----- optional -----

   B) To store the configuration file in the main SquirrelMail
      config directory, change into the select_range directory,
      copy config_example.php to ../../config/config_select_range.php
      and edit ../../config/config_select_range.php,
      making adjustments as you deem necessary.

     ----- optional -----
     $ cd select_range
     $ cp config_example.php ../../config/config_select_range.php
     $ vi ../../config/config_select_range.php
     ----- optional -----

6) Then go to your config directory and run conf.pl.  Choose
   option 8 and move the plugin from the "Available Plugins"
   category to the "Installed Plugins" category.  Save and exit.

  $ cd ../../config/
  $ ./conf.pl

7) Translations are not included in this package.  To get a
   translation, download the language pack needed from:

       http://www.squirrelmail.org/download.php



Upgrading Select Range
======================

1) Start with untaring the file into the plugins directory.
   Here is a example for the 3.7 version of the Select
   Range plugin.

  $ cd plugins
  $ tar -zxvf select_range-3.7-1.4.4.tar.gz

2) Change into the select_range directory, check your
   config.php file against the new version, to see if
   there are any new settings that you must add to your
   config.php file.  (This step only applies if you have
   created a config.php file under step five above when
   you first installed the plugin.)

  $ diff -u config.php config_example.php

   Or simply replace your config.php file with the provided
   example and reconfigure the plugin from scratch (see step
   five under the installation procedure above).

3) You never need to patch SquirrelMail again if you've done
   it once before (or unless the release notes/changelog say
   otherwise).
