Installation
--------
Mac:
* Requires Mac OS 10.9 or later.
* Download the `.zip` archive of the [latest release](https://github.com/Marginal/EDMarketConnector/releases/latest).
* The zip archive contains the **EDMarketConnector** app - move this app to **Applications** or wherever you want it.
* Double-click on the app to run it.
Windows:
* Requires Windows 7 or later.
* Download the `.msi` package of the [latest release](https://github.com/Marginal/EDMarketConnector/releases/latest).
* Double-click on it to install.
* Run **Elite Dangerous Market Connector** from the Start Menu or Start Screen.
Setup
--------
The first time that you run the app you are prompted for your username and password. This is the same username and password
combination that you use to log into the Elite: Dangerous launcher, and is required so that the Frontier servers can send the app *your* data and the market data for the station that *you* are docked at.
You can also choose here what data to save (refer to the next section for details), whether to set up a hotkey so you don't have to switch to the app in order to “Update”, and whether to attach your Cmdr name or a [pseudo-anonymized](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudonymity) ID to the data.
You are next prompted to authenticate with a “verification code”, which you will shortly receive by email from Frontier.
Note that each “verification code” is one-time only - if you enter the code incorrectly or quit the app before
authenticating you will need to wait for Frontier to send you a new code.
If you are not prompted to authenticate, but instead see the message “Error: Invalid Credentials” then choose the menu
option EDMarketConnector → Preferences (Mac) or File → Settings (Windows) and double-check your username and password.
