Installation
The application binaries servedat, movedat, and MTPexpedat can be used immediately by following the instructions in the Quick Start chapter. To install the applications for long-term use, follow the platform specific instructions below and contained in the README file. Later chapters contain detailed instructions for using each application.
NOTE: The command line servedat and movedat applications may ask you to provide a license code during installation. The graphical MTPexepdat application may ask for a license code when you first run it.
