1. Install
DF Hack, if it isn't already.
2. Inside your DF install folder (the one with 'Dwarf Fortress.exe'), navigate to the folder \hack\scripts\fix
3. Inside the fix folder - Right-Click -> New -> Text Document
4. Name the new file growthbug.rb (Windows will probably throw an error here, warning against changing the file-name extension. Click OK.)
5. Open the file in Notepad, or your favorite text editor.
6. Copy-paste the following into the file:
# growthbug enable [#d|w|m] |disable|status|now|help
DAY = 1200
USAGE = <<ENDUSAGE
Usage:
fix/growthbug enable|start [#d|#w|#m]
start auto fix process with #d (number of days),
or #w (number of weeks), or #m (number of months),
or the default of one month if omitted.
fix/growthbug disable|stop|end stop auto fix process.
fix/growthbug now run fix process once.
fix/growthbug [help|?] show this help.
fix/growthbug status
show auto fix status (running? not running?).
status is also shown with help, and when
starting or stopping auto fix.
(all options are case insensitive.)

7. Save the file, and exit the editor.
8. Navigate back to your Dwarf Fortress install folder.
9. Open the file "dfhack.init" (May be called "dfhack.init-example". If so, rename it to "dfhack.init".) in notepad/text editor of choice.
10. Add the following to a new line anywhere in the file:
fix/growthbug enable11. Save, exit, and you're done. Start up Dwarf Fortress normally, and if everything is working properly you'll see the line "FixGrowth: Running" in the initial wall of text that the DF Hack window spits out.
