Addendum (1/7 Dec 93):
1) you will need to obtain the AmigaNOS.LZH archive file, unarchive it, and
put the files and directories where you want to keep them
this is John Heaton's version of AmigaNOS, and the archive contains all of
the requisite files for his version and for Graham's version (eg; Graham's
version requires the same files as does John's, but only John's archive
contains all of the necessary files and subdirectories - NOTE: you CAN do
without the duplicate SLIP directory by modifying the Shell startup script
to point to TCPIP instead of SLIP, as in my example script for this Gopher
setup)
John Heaton's archive is available via anonymous FTP from: dir.mcc.ac.uk
(130.88.200.4)
2) move the files from THIS archive into the proper directories (or make
new subdirectories) in your previously created TCPIP directory (for
step #1) as directed above (in the "gopher.comments" note)
3) put the AmigaNOS.guide (AmigaGuide) file in the SLIP/Clients subdirectory
along with the Gopher (client) program
4) you MUST HAVE the AmigaGuide product in order to use this Gopher client
since it uses AmigaGuide as its interface
5) put AmigaNOSGW in the TCPIP directory along with the AmigaNOS program
6) copy the AmigaDOS script in the S: directory of this archive, into the S:
subdirectory IN the directory or volume where you place AmigaNOS (TCPIP:
being a SUBdirectory of this directory)
for example, I have the following directory structure
AmigaNOS:
S: <--- put script HERE
C:
LIBS:
REXX:
(SLIP:) <---- subdirectory from Heaton version was removed and is superfluous
TCPIP:
Digger:
Finger:
Logs:
Public:
SLIP: <--- this directory is required by Walters Gopher client program
Clients:
Spool:
<various subdirectories>
Work:
AmigaNOS
AmigaNOSGW
alias
.
.
.
7) modify the script so the window "corners" (size, location) FIT within YOUR
WorkBench (I use super hi-res interlaced, hence the big numbers)
8) create an AmigaDOS script or Shell Alias that executes:
newcli "RAW:<begining-X>/<beginning-Y>/<ending-X>/<ending-Y>/AmigaNOS-Gopher"
from <directory or volume where TCPIP: exists>:s/AmigaNOSGW-Startup
as all one line
Note that you will need to determine YOUR desired window size and location,
and fill in the appropriate X and Y (pixel) coordinates
9) the end result is that you will have ONE directory structure and TWO AmigaNOS
programs: one is John Heaton's which has some different control features than
Graham's, but no external clients; the other is Graham Walter's version which
has been modified to allow for external clients (eg; Graham's Gopher client),
but otherwise lacks some of the control features that John Heaton's has
