If possible read text files with a proportional font such as Courier.

CD-ROM DRIVE
The default is to read a ARCVIEW project from the CD-ROM drive.
On a Windows machine it is assumed that the CD-ROM drive
is labeled as the f:  or d:drive.
With a UNIX machine it is assumed that the CD-ROM drive
is refered to as  /cdrom
With a Macintosh platform the CD-ROM will be labeled "of97470e"

These three platforms should be able to work directly from
the CD-ROM if various "start-up" files are correctly set.
Refer to the other text files within platform folders for
more information.

If one desires to have ArcView data reside on a hard drive rather
than on the CD-ROM, files must be copied to a PC drive -- such as c:

To view and manipulate these data sets on a PC, it is
necessary to create a new directory, to be named "views"
on local hard drive c:\.  Copy entire contents of directory
"fsu\views" from cd-rom to "views" on local hard drive c:\

The arcview project file rus_geo.apr makes use
of the variable AVDATA01 to contstruct an appropriate path
to the data directory.  Modify the value set for the
AVDATA01 variable as needed.  On a UNIX platform modify the
".cshrc" file.  As an example set SETENV AVDATA01 /fsu/views.
On a Windows platform add to the "autoexec.bat" file
SET AVDATA C:\fsu/views.  On a Macintosh platform modify
the "startup" file in the Preferences folder of the System folder
with   System.SetEnvVar ("AVDATA01", "OF97470E/fsu/views")


To access the plot files, copy contents of directory "plots"
to a local hard drive.  To access Arc/Info export files, copy
contents of directory "export" to local hard drive or unix
directory system.
