Installation

Windows users:
I have provided self-extracting 7-zip executables containing all dependencies. So you just need to:

• Run the file downloaded
• Choose a directory (installing to 'C:\Program Files' would most probably break updates Vista onwards), install
• Read readme.txt
• Find its shortcut in your Start Menu and enjoy!

Linux (including the N900's Maemo) users:
I have only provided debian packages, so if your distribution does not support them, you'll have to:

• Install dependencies:
  
  • Grabbing latest Python (2.x) .
  • Installing latest wxPython.
    Debian-based:

    sudo apt-get install python-wxgtk2.8

    RPM-based:

    sudo yum install wxPython

  • Getting OLV from its site and installing it:

    wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/objectlistview/objectlistview-python/v1.2/ObjectListView-1.2-without-graphics.zip?r=&ts=1305220915&use_mirror=garr -O OLV.zip
    unzip OLV.zip
    cd ObjectListView-1.2
    sudo setup.py install
    cd ..
    rm OLV.zip

• Download both scripts from git into one directory and executing groove.py
  

  mkdir ./groove-dl && cd ./groove-dl
  wget https://github.com/jacktheripper51/groove-dl/raw/master/python/gui.py
  wget https://github.com/jacktheripper51/groove-dl/raw/master/python/groove.py
  python groove.py

Mac OS X users:
Following the linux instructions should work.
