- CADET QUICK START INSTRUCTIONS
- ------------------------------
- If you are the type of individual who likes to jump right in, the
- following instructions will get you off to a quick start. We do
- recommend, however, that you review the Cadet User's Manual before
- attempting to use Cadet extensively.
-
- QUICK INSTALLATION
- 1. If CADET is in an archived format, decompress its files onto a
- temporary directory of your hard drive and change to that
- directory. If CADET is in executable format, change to the
- drive or directory which houses it.
- 2. Type "INSTALL" and press [Enter]. Allow INSTALL to create a new
- destination directory on your drive for CADET. Do not use the
- current directory.
- 3. Follow the installation program's on-screen instructions to
- complete the automated installation.
- 4. If you created a temporary directory in Step 1 to decompress a
- CADET archive, you may now erase it and its contents.
- Note: The installation process creates two additional files in the
- Cadet directory: CADET.CFG and CADETLSP.CFG.
-
- PRINTING DOCUMENTATION
- 1. Type "COPY *.DOC PRN" to print the documentation. (You can type
- "PRINT *.DOC" instead if you prefer to use DOS PRINT.)
- 2. Review the documentation, and if desired, run INSTALL again in
- Configuration mode to change defaults.
-
- QUICK START
- o To use Cadet from the AutoCAD command line, type "CADET" and
- press [Enter], just like any other AutoCAD command.
- o To use Cadet from the DOS command prompt, change to the Cadet
- directory, type "CADET", press [Enter], and give it a file name.

- "ALLY is an AutoLISP debugging environment that every programmer
- should install. Highly recommended." CADalyst - March 1991
-
- ALLY is a programmer's workbench, code checker and analyzer for
- AutoLISP, the AutoCAD LISP programming language. The ALLY Checker and
- Analyzer assist you in debugging and documenting AutoLISP source code.
- The ALLY Workbench integrates your text editor and other programs to
- create a personalized programming environment, accessible from and
- interactive with AutoCAD.
-
- The ALLY Analyzer generates a comprehensive cross-reference of
- variables, constants, functions and subroutines, and a full function
- call hierarchy. Each symbol is identified by line number and scope,
- and categorized as a call, declaration, definition, reference, or
- setting. ALLY's analysis is useful in identifying symbol scopes,
- interactions and dependencies, declared but unused symbols, duplicate
- definitions and function side effects, and provides extensive error
- checking. You can analyze several LISP files together to check
- program compatibility.
-
- The ALLY Checker uses color coding to provide a convenient visual
- check of mismatched parentheses, misplaced or missing string quotes,
- and missing comment semicolons.
-
- The size of files which ALLY can handle is limited only by available
- memory. ALLY reads individual lines up to 64 kilobytes in length, and
- safely prints any embedded control characters.
-
- The Workbench's text editor is your own - ALLY links your favorite
- text editor to the Workbench, making it available at the press of a
- key. ALLY also links your text file browser and up to eight more of
- your favorite tools and utilities, assigning each an execution key.
- ALLY shrinks itself to less than 4K when shelling to DOS and executing
- external programs.
-
- The ALLY Workbench integrates these tools in a tidy package with mouse
- support, point-and-shoot file selection, and shell for executing DOS
- commands and external programs. ALLY can be used from DOS or run from
- within AutoCAD. When run from AutoCAD, ALLY can load your programs
- into AutoLISP with a single keystroke.
