Hi Fred,
To do your maintenance release update is a pretty simple process:
- Start the editor (your current copy), and select Options / Full 
Configuration 
/ Write settings to ASCII file, and give it a file name (with a CFG 
extension).
- Make a backup copy of your personal macros (.S and .MAC files), your 
personal 
UI, .DAT files, and the CFG we created above.
- Install the new copy of the editor over your current installation.  (I 
would 
install the macros since there are most likely some updates in there...)
- Copy your files back into place that we backed up above.
- Edit your UI file, and select Macro / Compile.  Repeat this process for the 
.CFG file we created earlier.
That should do it.  When you re-start the editor, you should be working with 
your customized version.  Of course, if you keep the editor in a different 
location (ie, some people like to keep the e.exe in their util or bin 
directory) you will need to copy the new one in there.
I follow a process similar* to this, and have written a batch file that 
automates the process.  I keep the batch file in my TSE directory, and make 
it 
a read-only file so I don't accidentally erase it. 
* My process is not quite the same since I am frequently working with 
in-house 
versions that I need to do some other things to keep files from getting mixed 
up. My re-install/update process takes 5-10 minutes: I have to zip up the 
current copy, remove my .MAC and .EXE files, unzip the new version, re-build 
200 macros, make several different versions of the editor, and a few other 
things in the process...
