- Introduction to the `term' v4.3 distribution
- ============================================
- Since so many things went wrong with the `term' v3.4 distribution I decided
- to change the distribution scheme in v4.0. The same scheme has been applied
- to v4.3 since it worked rather well with v4.0, v4.1 and v4.2 and I did not
- want to rewrite all the script files which were used to put the v4.0 and
- v4.1 distributions together. There are now nine distribution archives whose
- contents are listed below. For the most important files PGP signatures are
- provided to let you verify their integrities.
- You do not need to download all the nine archives in order to get a
- working `term' v4.3 setup. Just download the files you need, explained
- below is what the archives contain.
-
-
- term-4.3-main.lha (618119 bytes)
- --------------------------------
- This archive contains all you need to run `term' on your Amiga. Only the
- basic set of libraries and documentation files are included. If you wish to
- use other external transfer transfer protocol libraries than
- xprzmodem.library or need to use special external terminal emulation
- libraries you should download the term-4.3-libs.lha archive. More
- documentation files can be found in the term-4.3-doc.lha archive.
-
- term-4.3-030.lha (615533 bytes)
- -------------------------------
- This archive contains all you need to run `term' on an Amiga equipped with
- an MC68020/030/040/060 CPU. Only the basic set of libraries and
- documentation files are included. If you wish to use other external
- transfer transfer protocol libraries than xprzmodem.library or need to use
- special external terminal emulation libraries you should download the
- term-4.3-libs.lha archive. More documentation files can be found in the
- term-4.3-doc.lha archive.
-
- term-4.3-doc.lha (204401 bytes)
- -------------------------------
- This archive contains the main program documentation in AmigaGuide format
- for browsing with MultiView and the like and additional documentation files
- for the file transfer and terminal emulation libraries.
-
- term-4.3-libs.lha (129187 bytes)
- --------------------------------
- This archive contains special support libraries which enhance the
- functionality of `term'. These are terminal emulation libraries and file
- transfer protocol libraries. It definitely is a good idea to download this
- archive if you don't have these libraries around already.
-
- term-4.3-extras.lha (268054 bytes)
- ----------------------------------
- This archive contains extra material that is not absolutely necessary to
- run `term' v4.3, but may still either be fun to have around or adds extra
- functionality. Included are revision 5 of the Hydracom Amiga port which can
- be used with `term' (note: Hydracom is a bidirectional file transfer
- protocol similar to bimodem), sample ARexx scripts, character translation
- tables and sound files.
-
- term-4.3-locale.lha (246709 bytes)
- ---------------------------------
- This archive contains the user interface text, translated into Danish,
- Dutch, French, German, Italian, Spanish and Swedish and a blank catalog
- translation table file to fill in. Download this file only if you want
- `term' to use Danish, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Spanish or Swedish
- user interface text (Workbench 2.1 or Workbench 3.x required) or wish to
- translate the user interface text into your preferred language.
-
- term-4.3-source.lha (688993 bytes)
- ----------------------------------
- This archive contains the source code to the entire `term' project,
- including the new user interface support library. This is by far the
- largest archive in the distribution, so think carefully if you really need
- to download it.
-
- term-4.3-dvi.lha (218298 bytes)
- -------------------------------
- This archive contains the main program documentation in TeX DVI format,
- suitable for printing on a TeX setup. Download this archive only if you
- wish to create a printed manual.
-
- term-4.3-postscript.lha (264551 bytes)
- --------------------------------------
- This archive contains the main program documentation in PostScript format,
- suitable for printing on a PostScript printer. Download this archive only
- if you wish to create a printed manual.
-
-
- Installation
- ============
- `term' v4.3 is very easily installed; just unpack all the archive files
- into the same directory. Ignore any messages about files getting
- overwritten since some files are found in more than one archive. When
- unpacked you will have the complete distribution sitting on your hard disk
- drive just as it looks like in my original distribution tree. You do not
- need to copy the libraries, fonts or catalog files to the corresponding
- system directories, `term' will find the files contained therein all on its
- own.
