The documentation for Calendar Mate is in CAL4DOCS.EXE, a self extracting
file. The documentation files take approximately 100K of disk space. To
get access to the documentation, type in CAL4DOCS
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
To install Calendar Mate on a hard drive:
1) Create a new subdirectory on your hard disk with the commands
C:
CD \
MD CALMATE4
2) Copy the contents of the distribution disk to this new subdirectory
COPY A:*.* C:\CALMATE4
3) In order to save diskette space, the documentation has been compressed. To
decompress it, type in CAL4DOCS. Afterwards, you may print it by typing in
PRINT CALMATE4.DOC
4) Run the setup program to choose the appropriate print driver,
calendar language, date format and program window colours. Type in
CD \CALMATE4

To install Calendar Mate on a floppy disk system:
1) Copy the contents of the distribution diskette to a fresh diskette.
Put the distribution diskette in the A drive, a fresh diskette in
the B drive (if you have one) and type in
DISKCOPY A: B:
If you only have one floppy drive, you will be prompted to switch
disks periodically. Remember that the 'source disk' is the CALENDAR
MATE distribution diskette and the 'target disk' is the fresh diskette.
2) In order to save disk space, the documentation has been compressed.
If you have 360K diskettes, you'll have to copy the documentation file
to a different diskette. Type in
COPY A:CAL4DOCS.EXE B:
If you're using 720K disks or higher, you don't have to copy the docs
to a fresh diskette. To decompress the documentation, type in
CAL4DOCS
and a file called CALMATE4.DOC will appear.
3) Run the setup program to choose the appropriate print driver,
calendar language, date format and program window colours. Put
the newly copied diskette in the A drive and type in
A:
SETUP

If you are migrating from a 4.x version of Calendar Mate, you simply
have to rename your parms file and help file as follows:
RENAME CALHELP.DAT *.CH4
RENAME CALPARM.DAT *.CP4
Also, copy all the print drivers from the distribution disk and the
calendar program:
COPY A:*.PRD
COPY A:CALENDAR.EXE
From now on, the file extension of the Calendar Mate files will reflect
the release number.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
If you are currently running an earlier version of Calendar Mate,
please note that the format of everything has changed; the event
file, the parms file and the print drivers are all incompatible
with different versions and you MUST run SETUP to convert the
data files.
When you run SETUP, it is absolutely CRUCIAL that you are in the
same subdirectory as all the other CALENDAR MATE files otherwise
unpredictable results will occur.
After SETUP has executed, type in CALENDAR to start Calendar Mate.
