- Installation for patched Turbo Pascal (Herbert Oppmann 1/93)
-
-
- !! ATTENTION !! Use this INS file only on Turbo Pascal Version 3.00A!
- It doesn't replace the original Turbo Pascal installation program
- (TINST.COM) but installs only the additional features added to Turbo
- Pascal by my patch. Please read the documentation first!
-
- regarding the runtime library
- +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
-
- If you do change here, I advise you to recompile the program CHAIN.COM,
- so that your changes affect all your CHN files too.
-
- line editor:
- ------------
- What do you think of Turbo Pascal's built-in line editor? Nothing??
- Then you can tell my patch to use the BDOS line editor function
- instead!
-
- Shall the BDOS function be used instead of the built-in one?
- 010F F01/00
-
- Terminal reset string:
- ----------------------
- Is output at the end of the program, no matter why it stopped (normal
- end, error, or user break). If you have choosen the BDOS line editor
- and enter ^C at the beginning of the line, then this string is not
- output.
-
- Enter the string (max. 7 characters, empty if not needed)

-
- Overlay files:
- --------------
- Overlay files of Turbo Pascal programs (that are the ones with
- an extension of 000 to 099) are normally expected to be on the
- current user on the drive that was specified with the OvrDrive
- procedure. If nothing was specified, the current drive is used.
- Now, with my patch, we do another try on an installable DU.
- Only if we don't find the overlay file there, we give it up and
- issue a runtime error F0 as usual.
-
- Where should I try it?
- Please enter drive (0= current, 1=A, .. 16=P)
- 1C95 E
-
- And now the user (0 .. 31)
- 1C91 E
-
-
- regarding the editor/compiler
- +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
-
- TURBO.MSG:
- ----------
- You don't get asked anymore if you would like to load that file.
- It is loaded everytime (if found) or never.
-
- Shall the error message file be loaded?
- 2232 FCD/21
-
- TURBO.MSG,TURBO.OVR:
- --------------------
- The compiler searches these two files by concatenating "TURBO" with
- the desired extension and searching the file with the resulting name
- along a path (see below). But you may supply a DU here additionally,
- so that the compiler first look there before looking on the current
- DU. You should supply a DU here if these two files reside on a DU
- but not where the COM files are, that are also searched along the
- same path when you do "X" (eXecute).
- And of course you have to enter a different name here if you changed it.
-
- Please enter DU:FILENAME (no extension, max. 12 characters)
- 217D S20/0D
-
-
- search path for TURBO.MSG/.OVR and COM files:
- ---------------------------------------------
- Turbo first looks on the (supplied or) current DU, then on the DU that was
- current when Turbo was started. If that fails too, then it does a last try
- on an installable DU.
-
- Please enter the drive (0= current, 1=A, .. 16=P)
- 2E36 E
-
- And now the user (0 .. 31)
- 2E38 E
-
- That's all!
