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">
|
|
|
|
|
# gunzip -c bvi-1.3.1.src.tar.gz | tar xvf
|
|
|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Change to the directory <tt class="examp">bvi-1.3.1</tt> and type
|
|
|
|
|
<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>'.
|
|
|
|
|
To also remove the files that `<TT CLASS="examp">configure</tt>' created
|
|
|
|
|
(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>
|
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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
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:
|
|
|
|
|
<pre class="examp">
|
|
|
|
|
gunzip -c bvi-1.3.1.src.tar.gz | tar xvf
|
|
|
|
|
</pre></li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li> Load the tcconfig file (located in the <TT>bc</TT> subdirectory
|
|
|
|
|
for Borland - C).</li>
|
2001-01-15 00:00:00 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2002-02-18 00:00:00 +00:00
|
|
|
<li> Press F9-Make</li>
|
|
|
|
|
</ol>
|
|
|
|
|
The MSDOS version exists for historical reasons and is not really
|
|
|
|
|
supported anymore.
