- DEU
-
- DOOM EDITOR UTILITIES
-
- Version 5.2
-
- DJGPP/GO32 version
-
- =======================
-
-
-
-
- A FIRST WORD
- ============
-
- Before you read this, you should read "README.1ST", which contains
- information about DEU in general.
-
-
-
- WHAT IS DEU 5.2 - DJGPP/GO32?
- =============================
-
-
- A 32-bit version of Deu 5.2.
-
-
-
-
- WHAT IS DJGPP/GO32?
- ===================
-
- DJGPP - Copyright (C) DJ Delorie
- GO32 - Copyright (C) DJ Delorie
-
-
- GO32 is a 32-bit 80386 DOS extender. It supports full virtual memory
- with paging to disk.
-
- DJGPP is DJ Delorie's port of GCC to DOS.
-
-
- (see the file 'COPYLEFT' for full information !!!)
-
-
-
- WHAT'S DIFFERENT FROM THE "ORIGINAL" 5.2 ?
- ==========================================
-
-
- It's faster, can use all of your available memory (including that on
- your harddrive). That should be enough.
-
- Also, you won't be able to run it on systems having DPMI. This means
- that it won't work under Windows or OS/2, for example... The reason
- for this is that it makes use of a graphics library, GRX, which doesn't
- work with DPMI (see 'COPYLEFT'). Hopefully this will be fixed when
- the next version of GRX is released. (soon?!?)
-
-
- Remember this : If you can't get it running - use the "original" version
- instead. See under DOCUMENTATION below where you can get it.
-
- *NO* documention (except this file), examples etc. is included in
- this distribution. To get that, get the "original" version.
-
-
-
- RUNNING DEU 5.2 DJGPP/GO32
- ==========================
-
- Requirements:
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- Basicly, you need a 386 or 486 which is able to run programs for
- go32. A miminum of 512K RAM is required. You'll also need a VGA
- screen (and card) supporting a minimal resolution of 640x480x256.
-
- But as I said above, it's possible that you can't get it running
- on your system, if so use the "original" version! (see below)
-
-
- Installation:
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- Unzip it into any directory on your hard drive using commands like:
-
- mkdir \games\doom\deu [create a directory for it.]
-
- pkunzip a:deu52gcc.zip \games\doom\deu [unzip from your a: drive.]
-
-
- You will also have to set up things for go32:
-
-
- [ The following is an excerpt from the docs for go32 ]
-
-
- * Edit the included file 'runme.bat' to meet your requirements:
-
-
- set GO32TMP=c:/tmp
- ^^^ this is where your paging file goes - if not set, the
- variables TMP and TEMP are checked in that order. This
- should be a real drive.
- set GO32=driver c:/djgpp/drivers/SOMETHING.grd gw 1024 gh 768
- ^^^ whatever driver works with your VGA
-
-
- The GO32 environment variable:
-
-
- This variable controls the options available in go32. The syntax of
- this variable is:
-
- SET GO32=[parm [value]] [parm [value]] . . .
-
- Parameters: ( excerpt )
-
- nodpmi don't use dpmi even if you find it.
-
- emu [path] Use the specified file as the 80387 emulator
-
- driver [path] Use the specified file as the graphics driver
- gw [width] Default graphics width
- gh [height] Default graphics height
- nc [colors] Number of colors
-
- These parameters may occur in any order.
-
- Examples:
-
- set GO32=driver c:/games/doom/deu/drivers/tseng4k.grd gw 800 gh 600 nc 256
-
- if you need a 387-emulator:
-
- set GO32=emu c:/games/doom/deu/emu/emu387 driver ...
-
-
-
- DOCUMENTATION
- =============
-
- You should get the documentation with the original DEU ( Borland C version )
-
- The latest version of DEU and DEU DJGPP/GO32 is available at the following
- FTP sites:
-
- For European users:
- bear.montefiore.ulg.ac.be (139.165.8.25)
- /pub/doom/deu/deu52.zip ("original" version, docs, examples, source)
- /pub/doom/deu/deu52gcc.zip (djgpp/go32 version, source, NO docs/ex:s)
-
- For other countries:
- infant2.sphs.indiana.edu (129.79.234.115)
- /pub/doom/deu/deu52{gcc}.zip
-
-
- You will probably also find it on other FTP sites, such as ftp.uwp.edu,
- wuarchive.wustl.edu, hope.cit.hope.edu...
-
- If you cannot use FTP (because you have no direct Internet access), you
- can get the files using FTPmail. Send E-mail to: ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com,
- with "HELP" as the only word in the message (no subject, no signature).
- When you are familiar with FTPmail, you can use it to retreive the files
- from one of the Doom FTP servers.

- CREDITS
- =======
-
- DEU has been created by Brendon Wyber (b.wyber@csc.canterbury.ac.nz) and
- Raphaƫl Quinet (quinet@montefiore.ulg.ac.be). The original port to
- DJGPP/GO32 has been done by Per Allansson (c91peral@und.ida.liu.se),
- with good help from Per Kofod (per@ollie.dnk.hp.com). A lot of other
- people have contributed to the DEU project, see the DEU documentation.
-
- If you have contributions to make, read README.1ST to find out how
- to contribute to DEU.

-
-
- A LAST WORD
- ===========
-
- Remember, I only ported this. And it was fairly easy too. All the "real"
- work has been done by others. I just tweaked their work a bit.
