The readme at the github page [GitHub - micycle1/PGS: Processing Geometry Suite](https://github.com/micycle1/PGS) mentions a file PGS.jar for installing PGS, but I can find no jar file - is there another way of installing the PGS on Windows 10?

To install the Processing Geometry Suite (PGS) on Windows 10, you can follow these steps:

1. **Download the PGS-1.4.0.jar file** : Visit the [PGS 1.4.0 release page](https://github.com/micycle1/PGS/releases/tag/1.4.0) and download the `PGS-1.4.0.jar ` file.

2. Rename the file to `PGS.jar`

3. **Create the necessary directory** : Navigate to your Processing libraries folder, typically located at `Documents\Processing\libraries`. If the `libraries` folder doesn’t exist, create it.

4. **Set up the PGS library folder** : Inside the `libraries` folder, create a new folder named `PGS`. Within this `PGS` folder, create another folder named `library`.

5. **Place the JAR file** : Move the downloaded `PGS.jar` file into the `library` folder you just created. The final path should be `Documents\Processing\libraries\PGS\library\PGS.jar`.

6. **Restart Processing** : If Processing is open, restart it to recognize the new library.

7. **Verify the installation** : In Processing, go to `Sketch` \> `Import Library...` and check if `PGS` appears in the list.

Thanks - I found PGS-1.4.0.jar at the bottom of [Release 1.4.0 · micycle1/PGS · GitHub](https://github.com/micycle1/PGS/releases/tag/1.4.0)  
I am assuming that version 1.4.1 does not have a jar file.

Glat it worked! You’re right, it looks like the 1.4.1 release is missing its build artifacts. Maybe @micycle can help with that.

Yep, I’ll get around to that (no rush though as v1.4.1 just fixes the Maven build, functionality is unchanged).
