Installation guide for experienced users Some quick notes on how to install the program if the InstallerScript does not work, or if additional things have to be done ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *** Overview *** Due to some changes within the script, installation of the libraries now can be done to any directory, so that these may be installed separately to the system libraries. Adding the superview-Library to the system would then be managed via Assign LIBS: [PATH] ADD somewhere in the User-Startup. While the installation will be done automatically, this command will not yet be added to the batchfile simultaneously. The installer script also adds an Assign for a virtual memory path there, which defaults to "T:". Since "T:" should not be placed in a RAM-Disk - a small and empty partition used for such purposes only, would be the best solution - you may wish to change this: Assign VMEM: [Somewhere] After installation, your LIBS: (or ADD-assigned) directory should look like this: (libs) (svobjects) XXX.svobject YYY.svobject ... (svdrivers) AAA.svdriver BBB.svdriver ... (svoperators) 123.svoperator 456.svoperator ... superview.library superviewsupport.library Note, that is is important, that the names of the single Libraries are exactly the same as in the original archive (case-sensitivity). If you copy "YUVN.svobject" as "yuvn.svobject" it will no longer be recognized by the Library. This is because the name is also hard-coded for identification and since the corresponding functions are case-sensitive, there's a need for such restrictions. Also, some SVObjects/SVOperators may need a (relatively) large stacksize, e.g. Dither24.svoperator. When using it with only 4096 bytes of stack memory it'll surely crash. Use at least 32768 bytes with any program using the library. *** Details *** After you've performed the main installation procedure, you might wish to do some more detailed configurations... Usually, some ControlPad files for preferences settings on SVObjects, SVDrivers, SVOperators or the library itself will be placed at the location "ENV:superview-library/" during installation, depending on your specified configuration (ECS, AGA, CyberGraphics, ...). For a detailed list of available ControlPad files and settings you should take a look at the corresponding doc-file "ControlPads" within this directory. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 22.09.95 This installation guide refers to superview.library V11.11. There might be more or different things to be done in the future! -- Andy
