- This disk contains the shareware version of P-ROBOTS:
-
-
- This disk has the following files:
-
- OOZ.EXE -- A program to unpack the various .ZOO files on the disk
- P-ROBT21.ZOO -- Version 2.1 of the P-ROBOTS program plus the latest
- collection of robots
- RE.ZOO -- An editor especially designed for developing and testing robots
- RRR.ZOO -- A "shell" to enable you to play round-robin P-ROBOTS
- tournaments
- README.TXT -- The file you are reading
-
-
- Just a few words about each of these:
-
-
- OOZ.EXE
-
- This program is used to unpack the various .ZOO files on the disk. To use
- it, follow these directions:
-
- HARD DISK USERS:
-
- Copy all of the files from the disk on to your hard disk, then unpack
- each file with an .ZOO extension by giving the command:
-
- ooz filename.zoo
-
- followed by a carriage return -- where filename is the name of
- whatever file you wish to unpack. For example, OOZ P-ROBOTS.ZOO
- would unpack the file P-ROBOTS. (You can use wildcards: for example,
- OOZ *.ZOO.)
-
- DUAL-FLOPPY USERS:
-
- First, format three new blank disks. Put the P-ROBOTS disk (i.e., this
- disk) into drive B. Then, for each .ZOO file, follow the following
- steps:
-
- 1. Put a formatted blank disk in drive A. Make drive A the
- default drive by giving the command "A:" followed by a
- carriage return.
- 2. Unpack each file (on drive B) by giving the command:
-
- B:OOZ B:filename.ZOO
-
- followed by a carriage return -- where filename is the name
- of whatever file you wish to unpack. For example,
- B:OOZ B:P-ROBOTS.ZOO would unpack the file P-ROBOTS on to
- the blank disk in drive A.
-
- It is important to use completely blank, but already formatted disks,
- since the files within the .ZOO groups are quite large and take a
- great deal of disk space.
-
- SINGLE-FLOPPY USERS:
-
- The P-ROBOTS files are too large to all be unpacked at once if you have
- only a single floppy drive. Find a friend with either a hard drive
- or a dual-floppy system and follow the instructions above.
-
-
- P-ROBT21.ZOO:
-
- This is a .ZOO file that must be unpacked using OOZ.EXE.
-
- This file contins (1) version 2.1 of P-ROBOTS (2) the documentation
- for P-ROBOTS, and (3) a collection of the latest and best robots that have
- been written for P-ROBOTS.
-
-
- RE.ZOO:
-
- This an editor especially designed for developing and testing robots.
- It was developed by Professor B.J. Gleason of Upsala College and is being
- provided to users of P-ROBOTS with his permission.
-
-
- RRR.ZOO:
-
- This is a "shell" to enable you to play round-robin P-ROBOTS
- tournaments. It was developed by Professor B.J. Gleason of Upsala
- College and is being provided to users of P-ROBOTS with his permission.
