- Installation Instructions
-
- Note : If you are upgrading from a previous version of the menu system
- please read the notes regarding changes effective with this release
- BEFORE continuing with installation. If your previous version
- number is not the same as the one you are installing, some or
- all of the files will not be compatible, ex: 5.0a to 5.0f is
- ok but 5.0a to 5.1a will not work with the same files.
-
- Step 1: Create a sub-directory for the menu programs & files
- Ex: MD C:\MENUS
-
- Step 2: Copy the menu programs into the directory
- Ex: COPY A:*.* C:\MENUS
-
- Step 3: Change your working directory to the directory you copied the
- menu programs too
- Ex: CD \MENUS
-
- Step 4: Run MS.EXE
- Ex: MS
-
- Step 5: The program will display the TengWare logo & ask you to hit
- the Enter key or F10 key, take your pick.
-
- The program now will tell you the cofiguration file was not
- found, do you wish to define it, answer 'Y'. The computer
- will now ask for several things regarding how you want it to
- work. Remember F1 = HELP at all inputs. The configuration
- can be changed at any time so you are not stuck with the set-
- up you are creating now.
-
- Step 6: If you answered 'Y' to User Log On the computer will now ask
- for your sign on, otherwise proceed to step 7.
-
- The first time you sign on the Sign On is '*' and the Password
- is 'tengware'. I suggest you add yourself into the user file
- as soon as possible, F8 from the menu, because the '*' sign on
- does not behave the same as other sign on's.
-
- Step 7: The computer will now ask you to set up the main menu, even if
- you are not yet ready to set it up answer 'Y'.
-
- Enter the appropriate data for the main menu, then hit the F10
- key. The main menu is now displayed on your screen. Now hit
- the F10 key again. You are now back to DOS. From now on to
- access the menu system DO NOT enter MS, instead enter MENU.
-
-
- ***** The example menus included assume you have a drive C:
-
-
- ****************** From This Point On Run MENU not MS **********************
-
- The menu system is now functional
-
- To set up Sub-Menus:
-
- If you set up you autoexec.bat file with PATH C:\MENUS you will
- be able to access the menu system at any time regardless of what
- directory you are in by typing 'MENU'.
-
- An example autoexec.bat file: echo off
- path c:\DOS; C:\MENU
- cd \MENU
- MSRESET
- MENU
-
- or if you do not wish to include the MENU directory in your
- path command, copying MENU.BAT into your DOS directory will
- provide the same results.
-
- If you have User Log On enabled:
-
- MSRESET.EXE will force the menu system to require a log on before
- allowing the user access to any programs. This is helpful for
- those users that just shut off the computer without logging off.
-
- The menu system will allways require a log on if the system date
- changes or the previous user logged off.
-
-
- If occasionally the computer says it can't find a file or you are
- getting IO errors for no apparent reason you probably need to
- increase the number of files / buffers in CONFIG.SYS
-
- Example CONFIG.SYS file: files = 32
- buffers= 32
-
- The CONFIG.SYS file MUST be in the root directory of the drive
- you boot from.
-
-
-
-
- A registration form is included, just print the file INVOICE.DOC
-
- Type: PRINT INVOICE.DOC
-
-
-
- REMEMBER F1 = Help at all user inputs !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
