- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3. Introduction ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- CS-Edit/2 is an intelligent CONFIG.SYS editor for OS/2 2.0 and 2.1.
-
- It is a tool that can make maintaining your system much easier, and also let
- you learn about your machines' configuration with a minimum of effort.
-
- CS-Edit/2's goal is to only allow a valid CONFIG.SYS file to be written to
- disk, and to only allow valid additions and updates to be made to any existing
- CONFIG.SYS.
-
- What this means for OS/2 users is that they no longer have to edit their
- CONFIG.SYS manually, and that help is always available for items of which you
- are unsure. The net result being a computer that always comes up, and an
- increased knowledge about your system and about OS/2 itself.
-
- We hope that you will find CS-Edit/2 useful and that it becomes your preferred
- method for making updates to your CONFIG.SYS.
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4. Glossary ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- You can use the SET command in the CONFIG.SYS to set the value of Work Place
- Shell (WPS) environment variables. One of these variables is GLOSSARY.
-
- The GLOSSARY variable holds a list of directories that contain Help Files (
- these have a .HLP extension) which are used by the Glossary object that is
- found in the Information folder on your desktop.
-
- The normal value of this statement is x:\OS2\HELP\GLOSS where x is the drive
- your machine is booted from.
-
- Example:
-
- To set the GLOSSARY environment variable to its normal value for a machine with
- OS/2 installed on the C: drive, insert the line
-
- SET GLOSSARY=C:\OS2\HELP\GLOSS;
-
- in your CONFIG.SYS
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5. SET Statements ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- The sections following this details various set statements that can be found in
- the CONFIG.SYS and explain them in more detail.
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5.1. DIRCMD ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- This variable holds the default options for the DIR command when run from an
- OS/2 or DOS Command Prompt.
-
- Valid values are listed under OS/2 Commands By Name in the entry under DIR.
-
- For example, if you wanted your HPFS and FAT DIR commands to produce the same
- output, you would SET DIRCMD=/N in your CONFIG.SYS.
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5.2. HOSTNAME ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- This variable holds the name of the TCP/IP host that your PC will be connecting
- to. It can be any valid TCP/IP host name.
-
- See the TCP/IP documentation for more details.
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5.3. ICC ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- This statement holds the default options for the CSet/2 V1.0 or CSet++ C/C++
- Compiler from IBM.
-
- Any options that you don't want to explicitly specify, can be placed in this
- statement in your CONFIG.SYS, and all compiles will use them as the default options.
-
- This can save space in make files, or define your development standards for
- compiler options once, rather than every time you use the compiler.
-
- For more information, see the CSet++ documentation.
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5.4. IPF_KEYS ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- IPF_KEYS is an environment variable that is used by the Information
- Presentation Facility of OS/2 to allow selective hiding of information
- depending on which users are viewing the information.
-
- Usually the variable is set to either SBCS or DBCS by OS/2 2.1 installation, so
- that only the appropriate help will be shown for system commands and for the
- online references that are shipped with OS/2.
-
- In some situations, more than one level of information may need to be shown,
- and the levels may be concatenated in the IPF_KEYS statement with a '+'
- character.
-
- Example:
-
- To view both Single Byte Character Set and Double Byte Character Set
- information, you might use the following IPF_KEYS statement in your CONFIG.SYS
-
- SET IPF_KEYS=DBCS+SBCS
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5.5. NCDEBUG ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- NCDEBUG is actually a Secret Lotus 1-2-3 value that allows MMPM/2 Lotus macros
- to work correctly.
-
- There is no range for this value, but set at 4000 it allows MMPM/2 to load DLL
- entry points from within a macro for audio annotation in 1-2-3.
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5.6. OBJECTSNOOZETIME ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- This variable holds the duration, in seconds, that a WPS object waits before it
- unloads it's DLL as part of the WPS process.
-
- It defaults to 30 seconds, but you can set it to zero, to immediately unload an
- objects DLL when not in use. This is extremely handy for debugging WPS objects
- and doing object development work.
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5.7. SHELLEXCEPTIONHANDLER ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- This varaible tells the Work Place Shell whether it should gracefully recover
- from exceptions, such as TRAP D's.
-
- To see how often the shell really falls over, set this variable to NO in your CONFIG.SYS.
-
- Set this variable to YES if you are doing WPS development and don't want your
- desktop to fall over every time your object causes an exception.
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5.8. SLIP.COM ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- This statement holds the COM port (valid values are valid COM ports for your
- machine) that the SLIP (Serial Line Internet Protocol) service will use to
- communicate with a remote machine.
-
- For more information on this statement, please see the TCP/IP documentation.
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5.9. SLINK2 ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- This variable is used to hold the directory in which SourceLink is installed.
-
- It should only be one directory, and not a path statement of multiple directories.
-
- If SourceLink is installed on your C: drive in the default directory, the
- variable would be set up as follows :-
-
- SET SLINK2=C:\SLINK2
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5.10. SL_BACKUP2 ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- This variable is used to hold a directory that is used by SourceLink for
- autosaved copies of files being edited.
-
- It is a single directory, not a list of directories, such as is found in the
- SET PATH= statement.
-
- If SourceLink were installed in the default directory on your C: drive, the
- SL_BACKUP2 statement would be:-
-
- SET SL_BACKUP2=C:\SLINK2\BACKUP
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5.11. SL_TEMP2 ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- This variable is used to hold the directory that SourceLink uses to create
- temporary files for its own processing.
-
- It should be a single director and not a list of directories, such as the SET
- PATH= statement.
-
- If SourceLink were installed in the default directories on drive C:, the
- SL_TEMP2 statement would be as follows :-
-
- SET SL_TEMP2=C:\SLINK2\TEMP
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5.12. TZ ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- TZ is an environment variable that is used by the C Compiler and some
- applications to define the time zone that you are currently in.
-
- Usually the variable is set for you by the compiler installation, or
- application installation.
-
- In some situations, however, and application may need this variable set, and it
- may not be present in your CONFIG.SYS. CS-Edit/2 will allow you to add this
- statement from the Line->Add menu option.
-
- Information about the format of the TZ statement is on the next page. Press the
- Forward button to proceed to the next page.
