The subversion repository is hosted at https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/simplecart/. Any subversion client will do, but the explanation below applies to the command line client. Anonymous checkout is allowed and requires no username or password.

The process of checking out the code is really quite simple. All you really need to do is issue a checkout command and provide the location of the repository. From the command line this looks as follows:

In the command issued above the dollar sign ($) represents your system prompt. The command svn calls the subversion executable and expects a <subcommand> to follow. The subcommand shown above is checkout and can also be issued using its aliases co. Then follows the URL indicating the location of the repository to checkout (more to come about the structure of the repository). Finally there is a simplecart, which in this case indicates that the contents should be placed inside a folder called simplecart relative to your current path. Note that if the folder simplecart doesn't exist then the above command will attempt to create it.

The process for checking out the source using another Subversion client is very similar. Just remember that the important part is the URL.
