Installing AnalytiCalc
Your distribution contains 3 disks. The one with ANALY.EXE
on it is your AnalytiCalc "system" disk. The other has manuals, the
AnalytiCalc graphics task, and a handy calendar utility.
Before you go any further, WRITE PROTECT YOUR DISTRIBUTION
DISKS AND COPY THEM WITH DISKCOPY TO BLANK FLOPPIES. Keep the originals
and use the copies and NEVER write enable the masters. The Diskcopy
command is (for 2 disk systems)
DISKCOPY A: B:
where the master disk is in drive A: and the blank floppy is in drive
B:. Follow the instructions and copy ALL distribution floppies. General
Cybernetic Engineering will NOT be responsible for damage to master
floppies. That is why they are copiable; you can make as many backups
as you need.
Now put your master disks away. Use DOS and format a blank
disk with the /S switch:
FORMAT B:/S
This generates a bootable PCDOS/MSDOS disk. (It must be V2.0 or
later). You need to boot with ANSI.SYS (normally), so you must make a
bootable version up now.
Now copy the following files to your newly formatted disk from
Distribution Disk 1 (either the 256K or 320K version, depending on which
you'll use):
CONFIG.SYS AUTOEXEC.BAT AUXKPD.TXT ANALY.EXE
PCCHELP.HLP *.CMD BIGANSI.SYS
(If you have PCCHELP.HQP instead of PCCHELP.HLP, copy USQ.EXE from disk
2 and use the command "USQ PCCHELP.HQP" to unsqueeze it; then delete
USQ.EXE and PCCHELP.HQP. On evaluation kits, Disk 1 for the 256K version
has a copy of PCCHELP.HLP unsqueezed.)
If there's room and you wish, copy ACGRAF.EXE from Disk 2 also
onto your disk. This will enable graphics to your screen during execution
if you have sufficient memory.
You can now use AnalytiCalc by booting the system disk and
typing ANALY.
Be sure to read the tutorial (ANALY.TUT) and follow it along
first to get an idea how to use your new system. It will show only a
few of the commands but is a good starting point. Then print the
manual file and glance through it. You will be using it as a reference
document, not a tutorial, but it will tell you all there is to know about
AnalytiCalc.
For those interested, site licenses, educational discounts, and
source licenses are available. Those desiring such arrangements should

giving requirements. We will be happy to help you. Partial source
kits permitting additional user functions are also available at costs
below those of full source kits.
**** GENERAL ****
There are two versions of AnalytiCalc. Order the one you want.
They are:
1. 256K version. This is an overlaid version lacking logical
names and in which unusual functions are in several
overlays, which can slow calculation times, but all
other functions work in 256K of memory (except the
spawn commands, which require more).
2. 320K version. This version is not overlaid and includes
logical name support, but uses the same value access
method as the 256K version. It is generally preferable
if 320K is available.
Each version is priced the same, $49, to register it. Those who register will
receive notice of updates, which will be offered for around $10, and will be
able to obtain software being developed which will substantially enhance the
use of the PC on more advantageous terms than non-registerers.
AnalytiCalc may also be ordered, by specifying the version desired
and sending $49.95 plus $5.00 postage/handling to G.C.E. We will supply the
program, diskettes, and some paper documentation by return mail. Make checks
payable to Glenn Everhart. Sorry, we cannot handle credit cards at this point.
The direct orders will contain some files not present on evaluation copies, and
hence are SLIGHTLY more expensive due to extra costs.
