- If you somehow get a copy of this software in which the .DEF
- files' dates were modified, please be careful! You could try
- using the linker's /K option, which would let you link your
- programs; But you might be in for REAL TROUBLE if the .DEF
- files were really modified!

- * The version 3.0 distribution
- ************************************************************************
-
- Listings of all the files included in this distribution is included in
- the DOC directory under the names "FILES.SHR" (shareware version of
- the system) and "FILES.REG" (full version of the system).
-
- ------------------------------------------------------------------
- - Quick install
- ------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- In this release, we distribute the software in a directory tree that
- can be simply copied (via xcopy) to your hard disk for installation.
- Try:
-
- MKDIR C:\M2
-
- and copy each floppy with the command:
-
- XCOPY A:\ C:\M2
-
- Then, set your PATH environment variable to include C:\M2\BIN and
- the M2LIB environment variable to C:\M2\LIB.
-
-
- ------------------------------------------------------------------
- - Registered users
- ------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Since the library source code is included, we do not include the library
- object modules (except for those derived form the ASM sources) with the
- complete (for registered users) version of the system.
-
- ----------------------------
- - To compile the library:
- ----------------------------
-
- ALL.MOD is a dummy module that imports all the library modules; It is
- used to help maintain the library. First CD to the directory where the
- library source files are -- using the installation instructions above,
- they end up in C:\M2\SRC\LIB); Then:
-
- GENMAKE all /l
- MC all /m
-
- or
- GENMAKE all /obj /l
- set m2output=obj
- mc all /m
-
- finally, you would install the object files in the LIB directory
-
- COPY *.M2O C:\M2\LIB
-
- (to build the LARGE MODEL library, "SET M2MODEL=LARGE" before
- performing the steps above)
-
-
- ------------------------------------------------------------------
- To generate the OBJ and BIN object files from the ASM sources, we
- provide MKBIN.BAT:
- ------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- MKBIN m2reals
- MKBIN m2longs
- MKBIN m2procs
-
- Ignore the warnings about lack of stack, during the link phase of
- the creation of the BIN files.

-
- I would like to thank Professor Pat Terry, of Rhodes University, for
- giving me a hand with the OOP documentation.
-
- For all the FST Modula-2 users (whose support made version 3.0 possible),
- a warm thank you.
