********************
* SDE Installation *
********************
Pick or create a directory on your hard drive for SDE, and copy the SDE zip
file to that directory. Unzip the file to create the SDE system files.
Edit your CONFIG.SYS file, and add the statement 'SET SDE=D:\PATH', where
'D:' represents the drive and '\PATH' the directory to which you copied the
SDE system. Add this drive and directory to your PATH statement as well.
If you will be starting SDE from the Workplace Shell, you may specify that
SDE be started in either a full-screen session or Presentation Manager text
window when you add the SDE option.
You will need to reboot to make your new CONFIG.SYS take effect.

is an ASCII text file which is also completely available on-line.
*******************************
* Sample external macro files *
*******************************
This release of SDE is shipped with sample external macro files. These files
have been given an extension of '.XM!' so that any customized external macro
files you may have on your system with the normal macro file extension of
'.XM' are not accidentally overlayed during the unpacking process.
In order for the sample macro set, SAMPLE.MAC, to work correctly, you must
rename the '.XM!' files that will not cause your customized external macro
files to be overwritten (this is not a problem if you are a new SDE user).
The '.XM!' files should be given an extension of '.XM'. This can be done with
the following OS/2 command line:
RENAME *.XM! *.XM [ENTER]
