- INSTALLATION
-
- To install this version of the form program you should first
- create a directory for it (In this tutorial we will call this
- directory C:\FORM).
-
- Change to that directory.
-
- Then type a:\FORM01 -d, this will extract the files from the
- archive into the current directory creating sub directories as needed.
-
- NOTE you must extract with the -d option.
-
- When you have finished you should have a directory structure like
- this
-
- C:\FORM This directory contains form.exe, and a
- | sample sstools.ini
- + SHAPES
- + FORMINCS
- + DOCS
-
-
- File List
- FORM.EXE The main executable
-
- SSTOOLS.INI a sample .INI file, FORM reads it's defaults from
- this. User editable. If you have used fractint or
- fractint for windows then you may already have a
- sstools.ini file on your path. You can copy the
- [FORM] section from this sstools.ini file into
- your own sstools.ini, or not if you don't want
- to.
-
- README.1ST a readme file, with a short description of
- things, hardware requirements etc.
- I do hope you've already read it.
-
- INSTALL.DOC This file. But of course you already know that!
- Information on how to install FORM, and what the
- files are for.
-
- FORMVUE.POV a "template" POV raytracer file (POV is a public
- domain raytracer that is supported by FORM).
-
- FORMVUE2.POV a "template" for POV2.
-
- SHAPES a directory containing sample .FRM shapes
- (contents may vary).
- FORMINCS a directory containing a single .FRI
- file. (contents may vary).
-
-
-
- Now read the tutorial.
- Then FAQ.DOC
- and then if you're a real sucker for punishment read FORM.DOC and LANGUAGE.DOC
