-
- What is it?
-
- This archive contains a number of Arexx script files that are called
- by TurboCalc macros to produce statistical analysis on data contained
- in a spreadsheet.
-
- Want to know more? Read the included help files!
-
- NOTE: We have not been able to finish the help files and some of the scripts for
- this pre-release. However, it is about 98% complete and still usable.
-
- Changes?
-
- This is the second version of Tcalcstats. It replaces the first version
- developed for use with TurboCalc 3.5.
-
- This version uses Turbocalc 5+ but may also work with TurboCalc
- version 4 (untested).
-
- Please note: there were some changes made to the Arexx command set in
- TurboCalc between 3.5 and 4/5. Also, TurboCalc's public screen name
- changed. These changes, along with many, many, others are reflected in the scripts.
-
- What is included?
-
- There are basically four categories of files in this distribution:
-
- 1. The Arexx script files that do the work and which MUST be put in
- the TurboCalc/Arexx drawer.
- 2. The spreadsheet file that contains the macros that call the scripts
- (called "S_Macros.TCD", and which can be put anywhere but will be
- installed in the TurboCalc/arexx drawer.
- 3. The help files that tell you how to use the macros and interpret the
- results! These files would normally be put in the Turbocalc/Help/Stats_Help
- drawer but you can install them anywhere. We have tried to produce two types of
- help files - Amigaguide and HTML. They are identical (we hope!) so choose which
- one you prefer.
- 4. Special arexx library files that must go in "Libs:". These are:
- >rexxreqtools.library< copyright 1992-94 by Rafael D'Hallewyn
- >rexxmathlib.library< copyright 1995 by Thomas Richter
-
- Installation?
-
- Use the supplied "Install_Tcalcstats2" program to put things in their
- proper places.
-
- It is also vital that you have an "Assign" for Turbocalc. If the
- installer doesn't find one, it will prompt you to create the assign
- and add it to your "user-startup" file. The assign must be active or
- the scripts will not work!!
-
- Who did it?
-
- Rudy Kohut did the first version by himself (and it shows!).
-
- Rudy and Nick Bergquist teamed up to improve and expand the scripts
- and to create vastly improved help files in both amigaguide and HTML
- formats.
-
- Rudy lives in Melbourne, Australia.
- Nick lives in Greenwich, U.K.
