Release Notes, WinForth Shareware Version 1.01 -------------------------------------------------------------------- INSTALLATION WinForth Shareware Version 1.01 is distributed in the self-extracting archive file WFSHR101.EXE. All documentation for WinForth is in the form of on-line Windows Help files. To install WinForth Shareware version, create a new directory on your hard disk, then use CD to select that directory: C>C: C>MD \WINFORTH C>CD \WINFORTH Copy the WinForth distribution file (WFSHR101.EXE) into the new directory, then execute the file. E.g.: C>WFSHR101 The file will unpack itself to yield the WinForth executable system, utilities, and demonstration programs in the current directory. Add the statement SET WINFORTH=C:\WINFORTH to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file, then restart your system. Start Windows, go into the Program Manager, and use File-New-Program to add WinForth to the program group of your choice. Specify C:\WINFORTH as the "current directory" and FORTH.EXE as the program name. That's all there is to it! Read the on-line documentation (reached via the WinForth "Help" menu) for further information on the use of WinForth. "Registration" procedures are also explained in the on-line documentation. Note: WinForth does not have to be installed in any particular location or even on drive C:. The directory does not have to be named WINFORTH either. However it is important that the WINFORTH= environment variable point properly to the actual location of WinForth. Updates to WinForth are posted frequently on the LMI BBS as new features are added and bugs are fixed. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Known Bugs and Errata: See "Bugs and Limitations" under "Technical Information" in the on-line documentation. --------------------------------------------------------------------
