Lets think about simple ways.


A) Valentina Studio is just .app   so no problems here. Right?
  you can have right on desktop
  Vstudio_4.9  and Vstudio_5.0_b20


B) V4RB  or another ADK

   You CAN make on desktop FOLDER
        V4RB_49/V4RB.rbx
        V4RB_50/V4RB.rbx

 before install 5.0 beta, go to  /usr/local/lib/vcomponents
 and just renamed folder to
            /usr/local/lib/vcomponents_49
 
  then install 5.0 and you will get newer
        /usr/local/lib/vcomponents

 you can even COPY it and name
        /usr/local/lib/vcomponents_50b20


C) also I drop in Finder to left side folders
        RB/plugins
       /usr/local/lib

so I can in one click jump to this folder.


D) Now it is easy enough switch ...


TO 5.0 steps are: ---------------------------------

    1) COPY  V4RB_50/V4RB.rbx  INTO folder RB/plugins

    2) TRASH current /usr/local/lib/vcomponents
    3) COPY /usr/local/lib/vcomponents_5.0_b20  into
      just  vcomponents

      *** START realbasic


TO 4.9  steps are: ---------------------------------

    1) COPY  V4RB_49/V4RB.rbx  INTO folder RB/plugins

    2) TRASH current /usr/local/lib/vcomponents
    3) COPY /usr/local/lib/vcomponents_49  into
      just  vcomponents

      *** START realbasic



E)  YOU can even make TWO small scripts with 3 lines:

to_5

    cp /V4RB_50/V4RB.rbx /Applications/REALbasic xx/plugins

    rm -R /usr/local/lib/vcomponents
    cp /usr/local/lib/vcomponents_50 /usr/local/lib/vcomponents



Now you can just double click this script or run it from terminal


EASY ?
