- MfsfM (Marcus' file selector for MiNT) Copyright 1993 by Marcus Haebler
-
- Installation:
-
- In this distribution you will find a file called mfsfm.prg. This is program
- installs itself in the GEM Trap(#2). There is no check at the moment if
- MfsfM is still installed. This will be changed, of course.
-
- There are three possibilities to install MfsfM under "plain" GEM:
- - starting the program from the desktop
- - installing it in DESKTOP.INF as autoboot
- - installing it in MINT.CNF
-
- The last possibilities needs some explanations:
- There are several problems if the program is installed before the accessories
- are loaded completly. Therefore the program has to sleep some seconds after
- it has discovered that GEM has been started. You have to insert in MINT.CNF
- the following line:
- exec <drive>:\<path>\mfsfm.prg <number of seconds to sleep>
- Five seconds do a good job on my system but better figure it out yourself.
-
- With MultiTOS the installations is much easier. Just insert a line like this
- in GEM.CNF:
- run <drive>:\<path>\mfsfm.prg
- You do not need a number of seconds behind it because all accessories are
- loaded when GEM.CNF is executed.
-
- I would like if you would report me difficulties with these methods as soon
- as possible.
-
- Happy testing
