- Install on Floppy disk System:
-
- Step 1: Format a new disk to use as a work disk.
-
- Step 2: Place the Distribution Disk in Drive A: and the blank disk in
- Drive B:, and at the A> prompt enter "FINSTALL". FINSTALL will copy
- the files listed below from the Distribution Disk onto the blank disk:
-
- GE.EXE BUG.RPT CR.SCR ORDER.FRM
- GE.HLP MENU.HLP SETUP.HLP EDITMENU.HLP
- EDIT.HLP PRINT.HLP EPSONFX.DRV KEYMAP.EXE
- PCODES.EXE UT.EXE GU.EXE
-
- Step 3: Label the disk in drive B: as "GEdit Work Disk".
-
- Step 4: Print the manual - place the Distribution Disk in drive A:,
- make sure the printer is ready, and at the A> prompt enter "PMANUAL".
-
- Step 5: Store the Distribution Disk in a safe place.
-
- Step 6: Execute GEdit by placing the work disk in drive A: and at the
- A> prompt entering the command "GE" (or "GU").
-
-
- Install on Hard Disk System:
-
- Step 1: Place the Distribution Disk in the A: Drive, and at the A>
- prompt enter "HINSTALL".
-
- Step 2: Directions will be displayed on the screen. You will be asked
- to specify the directory on the hard disk where you want to locate the
- program file. If the directory does not exist it will be created. The
- files listed below will be copied from the Distribution Disk into this
- directory.
-
- GE.EXE BUG.RPT
- ORDER.FRM KEYMAP.EXE
- PCODES.EXE UT.EXE
- GU.EXE
-
- Step 3: You will be asked to specify the directory on the hard disk
- where you want to locate the support files. If the directory does not
- exist it will be created. The files listed below will be copied from
- the Distribution Disk into this directory:
-
- GE.HLP MENU.HLP
- SETUP.HLP EDITMENU.HLP
- EDIT.HLP PRINT.HLP
- EPSONFX.DRV CR.SCR
-
- Step 4: Modify the autoexec.bat file on the boot disk to include a
- line to set the environment variable "support" equal to the path in
- which the support files are located (i.e. SET SUPPORT=C:\GE\SUPPORT).
- This will ensure that GEdit can always find its support files.
-
- Step 5: Modify the autoexec.bat file to include a line to set the path
- to the directory in which GE.EXE is located (i.e "PATH=C:\DOS;C:\GE").
- This will ensure that DOS can find GE.EXE if the default directory is
- not the directory in which GE.EXE is located.
-
- Step 6: Print the manual - place the Distribution Disk in drive A:,
- make sure the printer is ready, and at the A> prompt enter "PMANUAL".
-
- Step 7: Store the Distribution Disk in a safe place.
-
- Step 8: Execute GEdit by entering the command "GE" (or "GU") at the
- DOS prompt.
-
-
- If you are reading this in GEdit - press F3 to quit.
