- The following files are used to setup and run 1dir+ from Windows:
- 1DIR_WIN.EXE
- 1DIR_WIN.PIF
- *.ICO (icon files)
- Simply copy these files into the 1DIRPLUS sub-directory.
-
- The following rules must be followed:
- There must be a PATH to the sub-directory that 1DIRPLUS.EXE resides in.
- There must be a valid COMSPEC statement in the environment.
- (normally OK, without doing anything)
-
- Adding 1dir+ to Windows
- -----------------------
- Make Main (or whatever your preference) the active window
- Select File in the Program Manager Menu, then Select New.
- (This should display the "New Program Object" dialog box)
- Make sure "Program Item" is selected, then select OK.
- (This should display the "Program Item Properties" dialog box)
- Enter "1dir+" (without the quotes) in the Description field in the "Program
- Item Properties" dialog box, and then press [Tab] to move to the Command Line
- field.
- Enter the full path name for the 1DIR_WIN.PIF file in the Command Line field.
- Example:
- C:\1DIRPLUS\1DIR_WIN.PIF
- Select OK.
-
- Changing the Icon
- -----------------
- We have supplied icon files named 1DIRPLUS.ICO and 1DIR.ICO. These files should
- be in your 1DIRPLUS sub-directory. You may use either of these or keep the DOS
- icon used as the default icon. To change the icon:
-
- Highlight the current 1dir+ icon and select File|Properties from the Program
- Manager Menu Bar.
- Select Change Icon.
- Type in the full pathname for 1dirplus and the icon file name. Example:
- C:\1DIRPLUS\1DIRPLUS.ICO
- Select OK.
- Select OK to save the current Properties.
-
- Notes on running 1dir+ from within Windows.
- -------------------------------------------
- 1dir+ runs just as it would from DOS. It is still a DOS program !!!!
-
- Pressing [Ctrl C] to exit 1dir+ will not return you to Windows.
-
- To close and return to Windows, from Compose or a DOS prompt, type in:
- EXIT and press [Enter]
-
- After typing EXIT, if you are running in Real or Standard Windows mode, the
- Windows TSR manager will inform you "Your TSR is loaded..."
- Simply press [Ctrl C] when the message appears to return to Windows.
-
- In Enhanced mode, you automatically get EMS, so you could set the 1dir+ memory
- mode to EMS/(w/o Stack) in the 1dir+ SetUp. You can also do this if you have
- EMS memory normally.
-
- If you are using 1dir+ for file management only, you can set the 1dir+ memory
- mode to Fully resident in the 1dir+ SetUp, since very little will be gained by
- being in partially or EMS modes for file management.
