Some quick-and-dirty documentation, to be dressed up later.

The new AE Installer is Java-based. In Windows, the Setup app that you download to get started will also install a local JRE (Java machine) in case you don't have Java installed. On the Mac it's a bit more complicated so we've left it up to the user to install Java himself (but the Setup app contains a couple useful URLs to point him in the right direction).
 
A couple features easy to overlook are the contextual menus:
*You can hide/show columns by right-clicking the column header:

*You can go to the mod on your HD (if downloaded), on the Depot, delete the mod locally (if downloaded), or force a re-download; this might be useful if you know the Depot was just updated and you don't feel like re-launching the AEI or choosing "Mods>Check for updates", or if you think you got a corrupted download.

Also, don't forget to check out the AEI's Preferences. Notice that the AEI copies over [[outro]] by default, but not [[intro]].

The AEI also supports localization (easy translation into other languages). Currently the AEI only supports English and German, but if you want to contribute a translation, read [[/Localization|this page]].  You can email Alloc with your strings when you're done.
