For NoteBook file viewer version 1.0 - December 11th, 1991 ========================================================== To install the NoteBook Viewer, perform the following steps. They assume that you have un-lharced the file into RAM:, and that you have room on your working partition for the viewer. Installation requires about 100k of free disk space. If you like, you can "Power-Pack" the viewer; this will save a considerable amount of disk space, but will cause the program to startup quite a bit slower. 1 - go to the ram: device; cd ram: ------- 2 - copy the file "swall.font" to your "fonts:" assignment; copy swall.font TO fonts: ------------------------- 3 - make a directory to contain the font; makedir fonts:swall ------------------- 4 - copy the file "9" to "fonts:swall" copy 9 TO fonts:swall --------------------- 5 - copy the veiwer program to your c: directory; copy NBView TO c: ----------------- 6 - copy the viewer ICON to the location where you want it. For instance, if you want the viewer available from the root of your harddrive, and your hard drive has the name "DH0:", then you would type; copy NBView.info TO DH0: ------------------------ This assumes that you use a NON-interlace WorkBench screen under OS 2.0. If you use an interlace mode screen, use the other ICON we have provided, this way; copy NBViewL.info TO dh0:NBView.info ------------------------------------ Please be aware that the previous command actually renames the icon - type it exactly or it won't work. NOTE: Under the current release of the Amiga operating system, you can place the ICON for the NBView software anywhere and it will find the NBView program in c: automatically. Under 1.3, the ICON must be in the same location as the program. The installation instructions assume you are using the 2.0 release of the operating system. This complete the installation of the viewer software. You can invoke the viewer from the CLI or SHELL by typing; NBView Where is the name of a valid NoteBook file. From the WorkBench, the usual selection proceedures work. The viewer can also load notebook files from inside when it is started without a notebook file. To automatically load the viewer, attach an ICON to the notebook file and set the default tool to "c:NBView". Have fun! Black Belt Systems Tech Support
