- Textra 1.20 doesn't cost a red cent. So it's guilt-free, too! :-)

- Installation
-
- *** TEXTRA 1.17 AND LATER REQUIRE WORKBENCH 2.0 OR LATER. ***
-
- Hard disk users...
-
- Launch the "Textra Installer" icon and it will prompt you through
- the installation of Textra and its support files.
-
- \---------------------------------------------------------------/
- |NOTE: If you do not have the CBM Installer program, open the|
- | scripts drawer and DRAG THE "Install_Textra" ICON UP ONE|
- | LEVEL (to the same level as Textra) and launch that. This|
- | is my own installer program which does the same steps. |
- /---------------------------------------------------------------\
-
- Floppy users...
-
- Floppy disk users do not have enough space on their REXX:
- volume to use the install program, but can include the path
- to the script's location in the Textra ARexx requester. See
- 'Launching the Tutorial' for an example.
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Launching the Tutorial
-
- After the Textra ARexx scripts have been installed into your
- 'rexx:' directory, launch the Tutorial ARexx script as follows...
-
- (If Textra is already running, start with step 3)
-
- 1. Launch Textra by double-clicking on its icon.
-
- 2. In the file-requester that appears, press CANCEL
-
- 3. Pull down the "Utilities, ARexx..." menu item.
- The Textra ARexx requester will appear.
-
- 4. In any string gadget, enter...
-
- tutorial
-
- ...or, if the script is not in REXX:...
-
- <pathname>tutorial
-
- ...for example, if this package is at the root of DF1:...
-
- DF1:scripts/tutorial
-
- ...followed by RETURN. The tutorial will soon greet
- you. (It can take 30 sec. or so on slower machines running
- older versions of ARexx particularly if running from a
- floppy).
