Hey guys, I'm new to this. I have a Darkcoin wallet. Do I just download the Dash wallet and everything should work?

I'm trying to understand these instructions:https://dashtalk.org/threads/11-1-dash-wallet.4450/

I have no idea how to find .darkcoin and the darkcoin.conf, never done this before, can someone make a quick video, so I don't lose my darkcoin.


I don't understand how to do this:

Linux & Mac : Goto ~/ and move .darkcoin to .dash

2.) Move darkcoin.conf to dash.conf


It means just rename the folder .darkcoin to .dash placed in /home/youruser/ and rename the file in it darkcoin.conf to dash.conf.
(.darkcoin is a hidden folder, press ctrl + h in the home folder and you will see hidden files and folders)
You can also do that by the terminal using the command mv

$ mv ~/.darkcoin ~/.dash
$ mv ~/.dash/darkcoin.conf ~/.dash/dash.conf
