- ===== Installation =====================================
-
- The exact installation steps you should take will depend on how you
- received BANK-PLAN.
-
- Installing from Diskettes
- -------------------------
- To install from diskette(s), you need to perform the following steps.
-
- o Place the BANK-PLAN distribution diskette "Disk 1" in the
- appropriate diskette drive.
-
- o Follow the instructions presented by the installation program. The
- program will ask you for a destination sub-directory, and will copy
- the BANK-PLAN files to that sub-directory. If you are given the
- choice, call the directory BANK. If you received BANK-PLAN on two
- diskettes, you will need to insert Disk 2 in the diskette drive when
- asked to do so.
-
- Installing from a Hard disk
- ---------------------------
- If you downloaded BANK-PLAN via the Internet, from a BBS (or received it
- in the form of archive files from some other source), you will need to
- perform the following steps.
-
- o Extract the contents of the archive file(s) to a new sub-directory
- on your hard drive. The suggested name for this sub-directory is
- BANK.
- The procedure for doing this varies, depending on the format in which
- you received the package. In all likelihood, the fact that you are
- reading this text means that you already have the necessary tools and
- knowledge to perform this step. If not, you should be able to obtain
- directions for this from the same source from which you received the
- package.
-
-
- ====== Running BANK-PLAN =================================
-
- The following guidelines assume that you have already installed (i.e.
- copied, unzipped, unarchived, uncompressed etc.) the complete set of
- BANK-PLAN files onto a hard disk.
-
- a) Get into the sub-directory where you have installed
- all BANK-PLAN's files. For example, if the sub-directory
- BANK was used, type "CD BANK" and press RETURN at the
- DOS prompt.
-
- b) Type "GO" to access an introductory menu system. If your
- PC uses a very old type of display, do not select this
- option choose c) or d) instead.
-
- *or*
-
- c) For guidance on the syntax for loading BANK-PLAN etc.
- type "BP".
-
- *or*
-
- d) Type "BP MASTER" to directly load BANK-PLAN with specimen
- assumptions contained in a file called MASTER.ASS.
-
- For more detailed information about BANK-PLAN, refer to the text file
- called README.TXT. To access BANK-PLAN's text files, you can use the EDIT
- utility supplied with DOS or the NOTEPAD accessory supplied with Windows.
