- In addition to this README file, there are six "self-extracting"
- archive files in the ARCSGML 1.0 distribution.
-
- ARCVM2.EXE Executable SGML markup validator (sample application).
- ARCSGMLH.EXE Documentation and C language header files (read LICENSE.DOC).
- ARCSGMLC.EXE C language source code for the ARCSGML toolkit.
- ARCREXX.EXE Source code for Personal REXX interfacing to ARCSGML.
- ARCTEST.EXE Contains test cases for use with the toolkit.
-
- PKZ10EX.EXE Explained below (not part of ARCSGML)
-
- A "self-extracting archive" is an executable program (in this case,
- for PC DOS machines) that when executed extracts multiple files from
- an archive within itself, and stores them on a disk specified by you.
-
- Usage: ARCSGML [options] [d:path] [file...]
-
- Options are:
- -o = overwrite existing files -t = test zipfile integrity
- -n = extract only newer files -e = extract files (default)
-
- d:path = Output drive and/or path.
- file = Name(s) of files to extract. Wildcards *,? ok. Default is ALL files.
-
- If you just type the drive and filename of the archive
- the files will be extracted into your current directory.
- You will probably want a separate directory for each archive, just to
- keep things straight. For example, if the archives are on a floppy in drive A, then:
- you could do something like this:
-
- c:
- md \arcsgml
- md \arcsgml\source
- md \arcsgml\test
- md \arcsgml\rexx
- a:arcvm2 c:\arcsgml
- a:arcsgmlh c:\arcsgml\source
- a:arcsgmlc c:\arcsgml\source
- a:arctest c:\arcsgml\test
- a:arcrexx c:\arcsgml\rexx
-
- The archives are in the popular "PKZIP" format. More information (and
- the code for creating and unpacking archives) can be found in
- PKZ10EX.EXE, which is itself a self-extracting archive. Note that the ARCSGML
- archives are self-extracting and do not require PKZ10EX.EXE. It is being
- distributed only to comply with the license conditions for non-profit
- organizations that use PKZIP.
-
- NOTE: PKZIP is not part of the ARCSGML package. PKZIP is shareware
- which is distributed for evaluation, but which must be paid for if you
- decide to keep and use it. There is no charge for ARCSGML (see
- LICENSE.DOC in the ARCSGMLH archive).
