Update Seggo

Install a newer version

Mac app

1. Quit Seggo: press Cmd+Q, or choose Quit Seggo from its menu bar icon.
2. Open the new .dmg and drag Seggo onto Applications again, choosing Replace.

Your data and settings stay. If macOS asks for Open Anyway again, follow the same steps as the first time.

Terminal install or Windows

1. Download the newer package and unpack it.
2. Run the installer again: sh install.sh on macOS, or Install Seggo.cmd on Windows.

It replaces the program in place and keeps your data and settings.

If Seggo is open, the new version is used the next time it starts. To restart it now, log out and back in (or, on Windows, end seggo.exe in Task Manager), then run seggo open.

Check which version you have with seggo --version.

Get told about new versions (optional)

Seggo can tell you when a newer version is out. This is off until you turn it on.

To turn it on, open Workspace settings > Updates and switch on Check for new versions. Or add this line to Seggo’s settings file (config.toml, see where Seggo installs):

check_for_updates = true

When it’s on:

• While Seggo is open, it asks GitHub at most once a day which version is newest, and also when you press Check now.
• This is the only request Seggo ever makes to another computer. It makes none while the setting is off.
• The request sends no cookies, no account, and nothing about you or your work.
• If a newer version is out, a banner says “New version available”, with a See what’s new link and how to update. Seggo never downloads or installs anything itself. Dismiss hides the banner until the next version.

During the pilot

While the Seggo repository is private, the check shows “Couldn’t check right now”. That’s expected, not a bug.
