README file for The Menu Construction Set
Installation Instructions
Insert Installation Disk 1 into a floppy drive and then type:
A: (or B: if you inserted the diskette into Drive B)
INSTALL
The installation program will ask you for the name of the directory that you
would like to install MCS to. Then the program will ask you to insert
Installation Disk 2. Older versions of MCS came on three disks, new versions
come on only two diskettes.
Install creates two batch files which should always be used to access The
Menu Construction Set. MCS.BAT and MENU.BAT are placed in the root directory
of the installation drive. These batch files can be moved to any directory
that is in your PATH.
MCS.BAT - Runs the menu authoring environment (i.e. the menu editor)
MENU.BAT - Runs menus that were created by the menu editor
Install copies the following files to the installation directory:
MCS.DOC - On-disk documentation - also contains the order form
MCS.TXT - Opening screen used when you type MCS
MENU.TXT - Opening screen used when you type MENU
MCS_EDIT.EXE - Editor program - when you type MCS, this program is executed
MCS_RUN.EXE - Run program - when you type MENU, this program is executed
RECONFIG.DOC - Information about Reconfig, the DOS Configuration Manager
You will also notice two subdirectories, EXAMPLE and DEFAULT. Each
subdirectory contains a menu set. The EXAMPLE menu set follows an example
which is given in the (paper) manual. The DEFAULT menu set is called the
default menu set for the following reason. You type MENU EXAMPLE to run the
EXAMPLE menu set. However, if you just type MENU, then the DEFAULT menu set
is loaded. By the way, the authoring environment works the same way. If you
type MCS MYMENUS, you will load the MCS editor ("the authoring environment")
and the MYMENUS menu set will automatically be loaded for you to edit. But
if you just type MCS, then the DEFAULT menu set will be loaded for you.
Note that if you are reinstalling MCS, your existing menu sets will not be
changed in any way.
