- Subject: File MSVRMX.HLP
-
- Files for the RMX Portings of MS-Kermit and What To Do With Them
-
- The following files constitute the version 2.30 release:
-
- MSVRMX.BOO BOO-encoded executable Kermit for iRMX 86
- MSVRX2.BOO BOO-encoded executable Kermit for iRMX 286
-
- MSVRMX.DOC Documentation for both OS's
-
- MSVRMX.HLP This file
- MSVRMX.CSD The edit pass SUBMIT file. \ Converts MSSDEF.H & MSS*.ASM
- MSVRMX.MAC The edit pass macro file. / to MSSDEF.H86 & MSS*.A86
- MSURMX.A86 Source code for the keyboard support module for RMX
- MSXRMX.A86 Source code for the traditional "X" module for RMX
- MSZRMX.A86 Source code for the DOS emulator and Kermit driver
- MSVRMX.P86 Source code for the wild card implementing auxiliary command, WC
-
- Note that all files but the enBOOed executables apply to both OS's.
-
- The MS-Kermit files, MSKERM.DOC, MSKERM.HLP, and MSKERM.BWR provide primary
- documentation for all version 2.30's.
-
- To build Kermit for either iRMX 86 or iRMX 286, get the following files into
- the same hard disk directory: MSVRMX.CSD, MSVRMX.MAC, MS?RMX.A86, MSVRMX.P86,
- MSSDEF.H, and MSS*.ASM. Then SUBMIT MSVRMX. (If your system is an 8086, go
- for a long coffee break.) The edit pass generates MSSDEF.H86 and MSS*.A86 and
- ASM.CSD, LINK.CSD, BIND.CSD, and BIND2.CSD. When it is done, you can delete
- MSVRMX.CSD, MSVRMX.MAC, MSSDEF.H, and *.ASM, as well as the link/bind .CSDs
- that don't apply to your system. LINK.CSD is for iRMX 86, BIND.CSD for
- iRMX 286, Release 1, and BIND2.CSD for iRMX 286, Release 2ff.
-
- Then,
- SUBMIT ASM(os{,asm-param-list}), where os=86 for iRMX 86 or os=286 for iRMX 286.
- The optional list of assembly parameters may be as many as five, such as
- XR,DB,'PW(132)',NOPR (assuming you want the listing you don't need to be wide).
- Module MSXRMX.A86 gets one warning message on iRMX 286. In all other cases,
- assembly is zero warnings, zero errors.
-
- For iRMX 86, SUBMIT LINK{(link-param-list)}. SUBMIT LINK(PU) produces the
- shortest module.
-
- For iRMX 286, Release 1, SUBMIT BIND{(bind-param-list)}. SUBMIT BIND(NODB)
- produces the shortest module.
-
- For iRMX 286, Release 2ff, SUBMIT BIND2{(bind-param-list)}. SUBMIT BIND2(NODB)
- produces the shortest module.
-
- File MSVRMX.P86 is the source for the wild card auxiliary command, WC. Its
- comment header contains SUBMIT files to build it. If you rename MSVRMX.P86 to
- WC.P86 and use an editor to dig the WC.CSD appropriate for your system out of
- its comments, just SUBMIT WC.
-
- Then, as super user,
- RENAME kermit,wc to :UTILS:
- PERMIT :UTILS:kermit,:UTILS:wc R U=world
- and you've got it.
