- General upgrade instructions
-
- 1) Backup the bindery (just in case).
- 2) Copy the new program files into SYS:PUBLIC, this will
- include MNU$MAIN.EXE, MNU.BAT, MNUCON.EXE, MNUINST.EXE
- and MNU$HLP.HLP. Also, copy MNU$LOG.BAT into
- SYS:LOGIN.
- 3) Run MnuInst and select the Upgrade option.
- 4) Everything will now work as it did before (or better!),
- take a look at the Version History appendix in the
- manual to see what's new!
-
- Note that it is NOT necessary to have the users log-off while an
- upgrade is performed. However, be aware that it is possible for
- an old version program to become somewhat confused when there is
- a new version data. At worst, this will cause an error for a
- user executing a menu. Logging out an back in will cure any
- difficulties that might occure. Note that there is NO possiblity
- of such problems affecting users who are in application programs,
- although they may encounter difficulties when the menu tries to
- reload AFTER the application is finished.
-
- Extra Note for those upgrading from The Mnu v1.24
-
- The Mnu v1.24 used an extra program (MNU$EXEC.EXE) for use with
- Exec method Items. This program is obsolete beginning with
- v1.25. While leaving the program in PUBLIC will not cause any
- problems, it is no longer used and may be deleted.
