To, instead, use the command line version, first copy clit.exe and keys.txt to your directory of LIT files. Then open a command window (START > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt) or (START > Run > type in cmd). In the resulting command window:
Code:
cd dirpath
clit
The full "dirpath" starts with a capital letter, e.g. C:\, and I usually get it by copying and pasting from the Address header of a windows open on that directory (in this case the LIT directory). Using the ConvertLIT command without arguments, as above, gives you a usage message. This should be enough to get you going (you want the downconvert option). Don't forget to put filenames with spaces in them within quotes.

It is possible that you don't need to copy clit.exe and keys.txt to the local directory, but the above definitely works.
I'm beginning to think this is all above me. I found my way to the command line window but I couldn't figure out where to find the clit.exe and keys.txt and how to copy them to the LIT directory . Is the LIT directory the "LitConverter AutoIt v3 Compiled Script" file or is it "My Library" that I've got in "My Documents"? I get confused real easily when it comes to computer/geek speak!

Maybe I should just stick to the exploded version and be happy with that!
