The following steps are necessary to get bvi running:
2002-02-18 00:00:00 +00:00
<h2>UNIX</h2>
2001-01-15 00:00:00 +00:00
The Unix version of bvi needs the curses (ncurses) library
for cursor movement.
2002-02-18 00:00:00 +00:00
<ol>
<li>Download the source package from the Download Page</li>
<li>Unzip the package with the command:</li>
<pre class="examp">
2005-01-07 00:00:00 +00:00
# gunzip -c bvi-1.3.2.src.tar.gz | tar xvf
2002-02-18 00:00:00 +00:00
</pre>
2005-01-07 00:00:00 +00:00
<li>Change to the directory <tt class="examp">bvi-1.3.2</tt> and type
2002-02-18 00:00:00 +00:00
<pre class="examp">
2001-01-15 00:00:00 +00:00
# ./configure
# make
2002-02-18 00:00:00 +00:00
</pre></li>
2001-01-15 00:00:00 +00:00
<li>Type `<tt class="examp">make install</tt>' for copying the executable files
and manual pages to the final directories.
<br>
By default, `<tt class="examp">make install</tt>' will install the package's files in
<tt class="examp">`/usr/local/bin', `/usr/local/man'</tt>, etc.
You can specify an
installation prefix other than `<tt class="examp">/usr/local</tt>' by giving
`<tt class="examp">configure</tt>' the option
`<tt class="examp">--prefix=PATH</tt>'. Use the
`<tt class="examp">--with-ncurses</tt>' option to configure to specify an
alternate search path for Ncurses outside the normal
<tt class="examp">include/lib</tt> search path.
<p>
You will find now four new commands:
<pre class="examp">
bvi The binary editor
bview The readonly version of bvi
bedit The beginners version of bvi
bmore The binary more program
2002-02-18 00:00:00 +00:00
</pre></li>
2001-01-15 00:00:00 +00:00
<li>Use `<tt class="examp">make uninstall</tt>' to remove the installed
files from your file system.<br>
You can remove the program binaries and object files from the
source code directory by typing `<tt class="examp">make clean</tt>'.
2005-01-07 00:00:00 +00:00
To also remove the files that `<tt class="examp">configure</tt>' created
2001-01-15 00:00:00 +00:00
(so you can compile the package for
2002-02-18 00:00:00 +00:00
a different kind of computer), type `<tt class="examp">make distclean</tt>'. </li>
2001-01-15 00:00:00 +00:00
</ol>
2002-02-18 00:00:00 +00:00
<h2>MSDOS</h2>
2005-01-07 00:00:00 +00:00
Beginning with <b>version 1.3.2</b> you may use the DJGPP environment to
compile <b>bvi</b> for working under both Win32 and DOS.
<p>
The MSDOS version (Borland C) exists for historical reasons and is not
supported anymore:
<blockquote>
<p>
2001-01-15 00:00:00 +00:00
You have to convert the sourcefiles from the UNIX textformat to
the MSDOS textformat first. This can be done e.g. by loading and
saving them with the MSDOS standard editor `edit'.
2002-02-18 00:00:00 +00:00
<p>
2001-01-15 00:00:00 +00:00
The MSDOS version is using the conio routines of the
2002-02-18 00:00:00 +00:00
Borland - C compilers for cursor movement. The <tt>doscur.h</tt>
header file substitutes the curses commands.<br>
2001-01-15 00:00:00 +00:00
<strong>Bvi</strong> is using the "HUGE" memory model, <strong>bmore</strong>
needs the "TINY" model to
be able to convert it to a .COM file.
