- RUCKUS 1.0d for DOS C compilers.
-
- INSTALL:
- -------
- First thing to do is to move all the files in this package to a new directory
- with at least a 1.5M available. You can move them anytime after the
- installation has finished. To install, run INSTALL.BAT. INSTALL.BAT executes
- the INSTALLATION program to setup the library files. These programs extract
- and build the two LIBrary files, RUCKDAC.LIB and RUCKMIDI.LIB, ready to be
- used by any DOS C compiler (see the Borland patch below).
-
-
- USING A BORLAND C COMPILER:
- ---------------------------
- If you are using any of Borland's C compilers (TC 1.0 to BC 3.1+) you must
- use the BORLAND patch. See the files in BORLAND.ZIP for more.
-
-
- OLDER COMPILERS:
- ---------------
- If you're using QuickC you should not use the AtExit() routines provided with
- RUCKUS. Seems _atexit is always near in all QC 2.5 memory models (a QC bug).
- This may be a local problem.
-
-
- WHAT ELSE?
- ----------
- For a quick demo of the RUCKUS toolkit, run both CHIMPS1 (MIDI interactive
- playback sequencer) and MODAC (Mod and DAC player/recorder). Also see the
- GUS & OPL2/3 demo file (MIDIM020.ZIP) in R2_DEMOS.ZIP.
-
- Read the *.DOC files for more.
-
- VGA graphics and a mouse is recommended for CHIMPS1 and MODAC110. For
- CHIMPS1.EXE information run CHIMPS1 with nothing following. For MODAC
- information see the MODAC.DOC file.
-
-
- AND STILL:
- ---------
- The XMS file transfer buffer is now 16K rather than 64K since C's malloc()
- large model cannot deal with requests of 64K. Probably just as well.
-
-
- Credit card order now accepted. See !ORDER.CC.
