the correct list would have been the help list, but there's no need to move the

Yes, you missed the fact that that version is just a temporary test build I 
made as an experiment on Mountain Lion, and is not expected to work on 
Mavericks.
I thought that not advertising it anywhere only those I explicitely asked to 
test would find it, but as you are not the first who dowloaded it and then was 
surprised 
to find out that it does not work on Mavericks, although it is named '3.7.7+ 
(Mountain Lion)', I will now remove it.
