(2). The name of the directory where AutoCAD is located.
(Directory name to place the PPC menu.)
(3). The release number of AutoCAD that is presently used to draw
the product.
(Required to know what release number of menu to provide.)
The installation program can use either a 5 1/4" or a 3 1/2"
floppy drive. To use the installation program from a 5 1/4", you
will need to copy all the of contents to a 5 1/4" high density

To execute the instal program, log to the root directory of your
hard disk, then log to the drive where the program disk is
placed. When drive "A" is being used to load the Pivot Punch
programs type A, when drive "B" is used type B.

MENU for Pivot CAD Program
--------------------------
The menu provided with the Pivot Punch CAD program is a
modified version of the ACAD.MNU file. If you recall
that during the instal program you were required to
provide the release number of AutoCAD, this is how the
install program knew what version of the menu was to be
provided.
The PIVOT.MNU file was loaded during the instal program. The
menu file name is Pivot for all releases of AutoCAD. Change to
the Pivot menu with the following command.
Command: menu
Menu file name or . for none <acad>: Pivot
To use the Pivot programs select the second pop down from the
left (Draw), then select the menu item named Pivot Punch. This will
load the basic program required to draw the different types of
components shown on the first pop down.
Select one of the component types to be drawn, a program is then
loaded to provide the information for that type of component.
