1. VERSAMAP installation is a simple process of copying the VERSAMAP
file(s) to a directory called VERSAMAP on your hard disk. If you
obtained VERSAMAP as a zip file (i.e. VMAP151.ZIP), you must unzip
the zip file in the VERSAMAP directory.
The following instructions describe how to install VERSAMAP from
floppy disk drive A, or from a directory (C:\SOURCE) on your
hard disk. If you are installing VERSAMAP from your hard disk, you
must change the name of the source directory (C:\SOURCE) in the
following example to the actual name of your source directory.
The files will be installed in a target directory called VERSAMAP.
You may change the name of the target directory if you wish.
a. Copy the file(s) from your source drive and directory to your
hard disk by typing one of the following commands at the DOS
prompt, and then pressing Enter.
from drive A XCOPY A: C:\VERSAMAP\ /S /V
from C:\SOURCE XCOPY C:\SOURCE C:\VERSAMAP\ /S /V
b. If the VERSAMAP files are contained in a zip file, unzip the zip
file in the VERSAMAP directory.
The XCOPY command will copy all files and subdirectories from your
source directory to the target directory VERSAMAP on your hard
drive. The XCOPY command will create a VERSAMAP directory if it
does not already exist on your hard drive. If a VERSAMAP directory
already exists on your hard drive, the XCOPY command will overwrite
any files of the same name in the existing VERSAMAP directory.
VERSAMAP is now installed. Store the original VERSAMAP file(s) in
a safe place as your backup.
2. To run VERSAMAP, change to the drive and directory containing
VERSAMAP, type VMAP at the DOS prompt, then press Enter.
When the program has finished loading, the screen will display the
author's name and address.
To plot the default world map, press Alt, then the letter R,
then press Enter.
3. Pull down menus are accessed with the Alt key. Press Alt and then
the highlighted letter to access a menu. Use the up and down
cursor keys; then press Enter to select a menu item.
4. To exit VERSAMAP press Esc, then Alt, then the letter P, then the
letter X.
5. To print the manual, set the printer to the extreme top of a new
page of paper (at the perforation for tractor feed paper); turn on
the printer; type the following command at the DOS prompt,
TYPE VMAP.DOC > PRN
and press Enter. The manual is 70 pages long.
If you are printing the manual from a word processor, set all
margins (top, bottom, left, right) to 0; and set it for 66 lines
of text, and a page length of 66 lines.
