OPML Editor Home
;){kind=spacer}
The OPML Editor is a distribution of the open source (GPL) Frontier programming environment. It can run all apps written for Frontier, but it's unique in that it boots up as an outliner, ready to edit OPML documents. Everything else can be added by installing tools using the new Tool Catalog command.
This document explains how to get started.

1. Download OPML.zip, extract the OPML folder.
2. Copy it where you want it, be aware that it can't be moved after you install. The obvious choice: your Program Files folder.
3. Open the folder and launch OPML.exe. A dialog should appear asking if you want to update to get the latest code. Please do. It's a "hot" install, you don't need to quit the app to keep going.

2. Drag the OPML folder to the Applications folder.
3. Open it and run the OPML app. A dialog should appear asking if you want to update to get the latest code. Please do. It's a "hot" install, you don't need to quit the app to keep going.
As of October 2011, the app in the OPML folder is a Universal app. You don't need to find Rosetta to run OPML.

If you're already using the OPML Editor...
1. Choose Update opml.root from the File menu.
2. Quit the app and relaunch (this is needed to be sure the menubar refreshes).
That's all you need to do. You might want to visit the Preferences and Tools Catalog at the top of the Misc menu.
