- COPYING XTREE TO YOUR FIXED DISK
-
- To Copy XTREE 2.00E to your fixed disk, follow these quick steps. Characters
- inside the [ ] brackets are the characters you should type.
-
- 1) Make your fixed disk (C:) the default drive by typing
- [C:] at the DOS prompt. Press ENTER.
-
- 2) Type [CD\] (change directory) at the DOS prompt and press ENTER.
-
- 3) Type [MD\XTREE] (make a new directory called XTree) at the DOS
- prompt and press ENTER.
-
- 4) Type [CD\XTREE] at the DOS prompt and press ENTER.
-
- 5) Place the distribution diskette containing the XTree program
- file XTREE.EXE in Drive A:
-
- 6) Type [COPY XTREE.EXE] and press ENTER.
-
- That's it! Now type [XTREE] at the DOS prompt to start the program. To save
- having to change directory (CD command) to the \XTREE directory every time you
- want to run XTree, add C:\XTREE to your path command in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
- You can do that with any ascii text editor, including EDLIN which comes with
- DOS, or you can rewrite your AUTOEXEC.BAT file using the COPY CON command in
- DOS. Refer to your DOS manuals for help with this.
-
- To print the XTree 2.00E documentation file to printer, first align the printer
- to top of form. To use the distribution disk to do this, log to the A: Drive
- by typing [A:] and ENTER. Then type the DOS command:
-
- [PRINTDOC] and press ENTER
-
- The documentation is about 30 pages long, so have enough paper and time
- available! And thank you for using the XTREE Evaluation Version!
-
- And now for a brief commercial announcement...
