--- FWEB FOR THE IBM-PC ---
Version 1.5x
September 13, 1995
* EXECUTABLE BINARIES
In the present release, the executable binaries
ftangle.exe --- The full-blown ftangle, including Ratfor.
ftangle0.exe --- Ftangle without Ratfor.
fweave.exe --- The fweave processor.
MAY BE supplied. If they are present, they will be found in the
/pub/fweb/executables subdirectory. If they are not present, it means that
I haven't had time to produce them yet. If you need them desperately,
please notify me.
* ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
The processors look for environment variables such as ``HOME''. If
``HOME'' is not defined on your system, say something like
set HOME=.
NOTE that there is no white space before or after the equals sign. (It
won't work right otherwise.) To see what environment variables are set,
simply say ``set''.
* COMPILING IT YOURSELF.
This directory contains the following subdirectories:
microsoft --- Stuff for use with the Microsoft C compiler
gnu --- For compiling with a `gcc for DOS' such as djgpp.
FWEB has grown so large that the stuff in the microsoft subdirectory is
virtually useless. Although the processors fit in low memory, they can't
allocate enough space to do anything.
Fortunately, there are now compilers that provide a 32-bit environment
that works nicely with extended memory. In particular, a port of the gnu C
compiler is available. I used djgpp, written by D.J. Delorie and available
from oak.oakland.edu:/SimTel/vendors/djgpp. Bootstrapping files for that
environment are found in the gnu subdirectory. See the READ_ME file there
for further discussion.
