Thesaur Plus Installation
(C) 1989 By Derrick Burgess
Attention: Information you should know before proceeding
Minimum requirements for running Thesaur Plus.
DOS 3.0 OR greater
Hard drive with 475k free
78k of RAM, or 10K of RAM and an additional 120k disk space
--Thesaur Plus will not work off of a floppy system--
If you are interested in a thesaurus that does run off of
a floppy system you will need to get a copy of the program
Thesaur. It will run off of a floppy system, but will
not pop up over any other program and runs as a stand alone
thesaurus.
Files on this disk:
ATENTION.DOC This File
GO.BAT Installation batch file Part 1
PART2.BAT Installation batch file Part 2
INSTALL.EXE Main Installation program
Also allows changing of colors and HotKey later
THESPLUS.DOC Documentation for Thesaur Plus
THESPLUS.EXE Thesaur Plus Memory Resident thesaurus
THESPLUS.TXT Thesaur Plus Registration form
THESDATA.ZIP Shrunk data file
REMOVE.COM Removes Thesaur Plus from memory
UNZIP.EXE Unshrinks data file
(I know some people will try to remove this
file, but it must be included! Don't
worry, if you have PkUnZip it will use that
instead)
Files Not shown or files Created and erased by INSTALL.EXE
THESSET.BAT Installation batch file Part 1.5
Files copied to destination drive upon installation
INSTALL.EXE Not necessary unless you want to change colors or HotKey
THESPLUS.DOC Not necessary but a good idea to keep the doc's close
THESPLUS.EXE VERY IMPORTANT
THESPLUS.DAT VERY IMPORTANT
THESPLUS.TXT IMPORTANT
REMOVE.COM Not necessary unless you want to remove ThesPlus from memory
Instructions to start installation
Insert original disk in drive A: and type GO
Installation assumes Target disk is any drive (created or not) on C:
What INSTALL does.
First it asks for a target directory to install Thesaur Plus on.
This can be any subdirectory on C: whether it exists currently or not.
Then Files are copied to that drive, the data file is unshrunk, and the
environment is changed to include Thesaur Plus.
If you have a color monitor, INSTALL also asks you what colors
you would like to use. I recommend that you use the same background
for all your choices, but it is up to you.
Next, you are asked what Hot Key you would like to use. This is
the key combination you must press to "Pop up" Thesaur Plus over your
word processor. You are given 10 choices, one of which should fit your
style of writing.
Finally, you are asked a couple of questions about Options that
you would like included. These are -
1) Use Disk Swapping? See also THESPLUS.DOC
2) Use Color if available?
Lastly, A Batch file (C:\THESPLUS.BAT) is created which contains
the information from the above questions, and the last line
tells you how to load Thesaur Plus into memory.
