-
-
- Installation - There is also install information in the User's Manual

- The distribution file is RTEDIT11.ZIP prepared by PKZIP from PKWARE.
- Unzip the files to diskette or to a temporary directory on the hard
- disk.
-
- Windows must be running to install RT Edit.
-
- Run the Setup File from Windows. One way to do this is to use the
- Program Manager. Select File | Run, then enter D:\Setup replacing "D"
- with the disk drive where RT Edit resides or the full path to the RT Edit
- Files on your hard disk.
-
- You will see an introductory prompt. At this point, you may cancel
- the installation or continue. At several points in the process, you
- may choose "Exit" to terminate the installation. If you do so, the
- installation will be incomplete.
-
- If you continue, you will then see a default directory. Your may
- accept the default or change the directory by editing this field.
-
- A dialog then provides for your selection of optional items available
- in the installation. One version of the User's Manual on disk is
- provided. This file is an ASCII text file, with extension ".prn".
- You will also see two choices for a group to enter the RT Edit
- program items. If neither of these is satisfactory, you may setup
- these items using the Windows Program Manager after the Setup program
- completes.
-
- If there is not enough space on the destination drive, you will see
- a warning and Setup will terminate. Setup will similarly terminate
- if your CPU is not an 80386 or better.

- Notes - RT Edit User's Manual, Version 1.0
-
- page 9 The User's Manual describes the use of arguments within
- Visual C++ or the Borland IDE. An occasional problem has been
- reported when using RT Edit this way. There have not yet been
- problems found when RT Edit is called with no arguments. In this
- case, the full RT Setup or Save/Restore Environment is used to
- operate with Identifier Lookup.
-
- Also, when RT Edit is exited with save of a file, you may need
- to close (without saving) and re-open the file in the IDE in
- order to include the changes made.
-
- page 7 Limitations. An additional limitation was omitted. The
- tab position is fixed at 3 character intervals, but tabs are
- retained in the text so viewing the file in other tools may
- allow viewing or printing with other tab values.

- Status Problem
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
- Corrected It was reported that an undocumented file was being
- written to the current directory.
- The problem was that a file of the identifiers
- recognized was written when "Identifier Lookup" was
- used in RT Edit. This file was always named "idents.txt"
- and overwrote any existing file of that name. The
- content of the file was the set of Identifier names found.
- This was in error and was corrected. A future version of
- RT Edit may include an option to write this file.
