To install a movie, just download the ZIP file and unpack it in the yasara/mov directory
(which of course requires that you have at least YASARA View installed).
MacOS tries to hide the yasara directory from you: open Finder, browse to the YASARA application
and click on 'Show package contents' in the context menu to see the yasara directory. If you then click on Help > Play help movie, the new movie will appear in the list. Movies are simply YASARA macros that use multimedia elements to create
interactive tutorials or presentations. Works well instead of the usual
PowerPoint approach. Instructions how to create your own movies can be found
in the YASARA documentation by clicking on 'Recipes - Answer complex questions' ->
'Create your own YASARA movies'.
Plugins are Python scripts or Yanaconda macros that extend YASARA's user interface
and get activated when you click the respective option. They are the method of choice
to extend YASARA with your own functions. All plugins are distributed together with YASARA and should be available from
the graphical user interface. Windows users need to have Python from www.python.org
installed. To reinstall a plugin, just download the ZIP file and unpack it in the yasara/plg directory.
If you then restart YASARA, the new options will appear in the menus. If you are not
sure where the option appears, look at the top of the main plugin file (*.mcr or *.py).
