Scythebill downloads

The current version of Scythebill is 12.9.1, and you can download versions for Windows, MacOS and Linux, as well as a cross-platform version that'll work everywhere else.

Download links

More detailed instructions are below, but if you know what you're doing, download the appropriate file for your operating system:

Windows installer

MacOS disk image

Linux installer (32-bit)

Linux installer (64-bit)

If you're using an operating system other than Windows, MacOS, or Linux, you might want the cross-platform JAR;  you'll need to also install Java.

Windows downloads

Windows installer

Instructions (installer version):

1. Download the installer, and run it.
2. Open "Launch Scythebill" inside the new Scythebill shortcut in the Start menu (or double-click on any existing .bsxm sightings file)

Many thanks to BitRock for making their installers freely available for open-source software.

MacOS downloads

MacOS disk image 

Instructions:

1. Download the above .zip file.
2. Open it to decompress it, and open the scythebill-12.9.1.dmg file that is produced

Scythebill now requires MacOS 10.7 (Lion) or newer - which covers all versions of MacOS back to 2011.  If you still need a version of Scythebill that runs on MacOS 10.6, please let me know, and I can look into once again distributing a version that supports it.
