Litestep from scratch:
* Download a litestep 0.24.7 final build.
* extract it to an obvious location.
* (hint) c:\litestep
* Create an empty text file named step.rc and put it in the same folder as litestep.exe
* Download jkey.dll and put jkey.dll in same folder as litestep.exe
* Read release_notes.txt, read jkey's readme.txt
* Open step.rc in notepad.
* (hint) Add a line: LoadModule jkey.dll
* (hint) save step.rc
* Configure your first hotkey according to the documentation you previously read. (I suggest to launch notepad, so you can open your step.rc while running litestep)
* (hint) *jKey WIN N notepad.exe c:\litestep\step.rc
* Quit Explorer shell, Launch Litestep.
* Remember you can recycle Litestep using CTRL+ALT+F1
* (hint) setup a hotkey to recycle using the !Recycle bangcommand
You now have a minimal Litestep installation. Continue downloading modules that you are interested in and load/configure them after readingn their documentation. Once you are comfortable with tweaking litestep, go to http://o-t-s.sourceforge.net/ and read all about OTS2, and how almost all current themes are designed so that they work for everyone out of the box, and in by doing so, creates an uninformed user base. :)
