- README for MVS Gopher Client and Server, Version 2, Release 2
-
- August 9, 1993
-
- Instructions:
-
- FTP the appropriate distribution file to your MVS system first.
-
- If you have a C compiler, then use.... gopher.ggmvs.distrib.cntl.v2r2
- If you don't have a C compiler, use... gopher.ggmvs.distobj.cntl.v2r2
-
- Use something like the following:
-
- To FTP gopher.ggmvs.distrib.cntl.v2r2 (source distribution):
-
- ftp boombox.micro.umn.edu
- anonymous
- password@myhost.mydomain
- cd /pub/gopher/mvs
- get gopher.ggmvs.distrib.cntl.v2r2 GOPHER.DISTRIB.CNTL
- quit
-
- To FTP gopher.ggmvs.distobj.cntl.v2r2 (object distribution):
-
- ftp boombox.micro.umn.edu
- anonymous
- password@myhost.mydomain
- cd /pub/gopher/mvs
- binary
- locsite recfm=fb lrecl=80 blksize=6160
- get gopher.ggmvs.distobj.cntl.v2r2 GOPHER.DISTOBJ.CNTL
- quit
-
- Please note that the *source* distribution is stored as a
- RECFM=VB LRECL=259 file, to save space and speed up file transfer.
- The *object* distribution is stored as RECFM=FB LRECL=80 because
- there's no other way to store combination EBCDIC and object text
- in a binary file.
-
- Either of these is one large JCL stream that executes the IEBUPDTE
- utility to build several PDS's. These PDS's are:
-
- GOPHER.INSTALL.CNTL JCL to complete the build, readmes, miscellany
- GOPHER.INSTALL.CLIST CLISTs and REXX execs for client and server
- GOPHER.INSTALL.PANEL ISPF panels for the client
- GOPHER.INSTALL.ABOUT The "About This Gopher" text library
- GOPHER.INSTALL.OBJ Object modules *** OBJECT DISTRIBUTION ONLY ***
- GOPHER.INSTALL.H C headers *** SOURCE DISTRIBUTION ONLY ***
- GOPHER.INSTALL.C C source *** SOURCE DISTRIBUTION ONLY ***
-
- You can modify the job to generate a different prefix for the names
- if you don't want to call them GOPHER.INSTALL.*. You'll need to
- provide your own JOB card, too. Other than that, the JCL is ready
- to run (from ISPF EDIT, anyway). If you run into problems submitting
- a RECFM=VB file, copy the file over into a RECFM=FB LRECL=80 data set
- and then try it.
-
- Once you've done this, proceed to the $$README file in the .CNTL PDS,
- which you can read once the first stage of the unload is done. This
- will tell you the rest of the steps to finish building Gopher.
-
- You may install just the client, just the server, or both the
- client and the server. It is purely up to what your needs are.
