===== Installation =====================================
Installing MAPIT:
The first time you run it, MAPIT will create a special directory
structure under the current directory of your harddrive. Assuming
that you unzipped MAPIT20.ZIP in a directory called MAPIT, your
harddrive will contain the following structure:
MAPIT - executables and data
DBFS - point data .dbf's
DBQS - queries and supporting .dbf's
EXAMPLES - supporting data for examples
Run MAPIT by entering "mapit":
C:\MAPIT> mapit
MAPIT will open the DEMO.MP3 file and use it as data. Furthermore,
MAPIT will open EXTENDED.MP3 to display the Columbus Demo. When you
are tired of it, delete EXTENDED.MP3. Like a dismembered star fish,
EXTENDED.MP3 will be regenerated as a null length file the next time
you run MAPIT.
A Quick Demo:
MAPIT comes up in the Standard World View the first time you run.
<Tab> to zoom in on the Gulf of Mexico. (You are tabing
backward through a two-level history.)
<Tab> again to zoom in on Florida.
Click to check "DISPLAY/All Features" and click "ZOOM/To Std
World" to return to the beginning but with maximum features
displayed.
Again <Tab> twice.
After you've cycled through this simple demonstration, you
may want to reduce the number of Features DISPLAYed and
begin experimenting by "ZOOMing/In by Corners" and using the
<Esc>, <Pg Up/Dn>, and arrow keys as outlined in MAPIT.DOC.
"ZOOM/To Std Word" and check out the Columbus Demo.
To look up locations in MAPIT's database, select TOOLS/Database
/Lookup/City Gazetteer, enter "Saint" in City, click on Lookup/More
twice, select Saint Petersburg, FL or any other city from the list of
matches, and click on Return & Display. MAPIT will redisplay
centered on that loation. <Esc> the redisplay and ZOOM/To Factor x
entering 300.
MAPIT REQUIRES A MOUSE. This is no problem if you are running Windows
95. SKIP THE NEXT SECTION.
Otherwise, unless you have installed a mouse driver BEFORE you start
Windows 3.x, you will be unable to operate MAPIT. You can exit MAPIT
from the keyboard by entering <CTRL>Q. If you see a cursor when you
run MAPIT, everything is okay. SKIP THE NEXT SECTION.
How to Install a Mouse:
Install the mouse driver by issuing the following command at the
command prompt.
C:> "path"\MOUSE (e.g. C:\WINDOWS\MOUSE)
where "path" is the path to the directory containing the mouse
driver.
Place this command in your AUTOEXEC.BAT so MOUSE is always available.
Caution: Windows 3.x is smart and will show a mouse cursor in
Windows programs without the mouse driver's being installed. If the
cursor doesn't appear when you run MAPIT, <CTRL>Q out and try to edit
a file with the standard DOS editor from the DOS prompt (EDIT
VENDINFO.DIZ). If you don't have a mouse cursor in the editor, the
driver isn't loaded. Try loading it from the DOS prompt as above, and
if that works, add the same command near the end of your AUTOEXEC.BAT
but before any call to WINdows.
For More Information:
These files were extracted from the original manual documentation.
