The following steps are necessary to get bvi running:
<H2>UNIX</H2>
The Unix version of bvi needs the curses (ncurses) library
for cursor movement.
<OL>
<LI>Download the source package from the Download Page
<LI>Unzip the package with the command:
<PRE CLASS="examp">
# gunzip -c bvi-1.3.0.src.tar.gz | tar xvf
</PRE>
<LI>Change to the directory <TT CLASS="examp">bvi-1.3.0</TT> and type
<PRE CLASS="examp">
# ./configure
# make
</PRE>
<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
</pre>
<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
a different kind of computer), type `<tt class="examp">make distclean</tt>'.
</ol>
<H2>MSDOS</H2>
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'.
<P>
The MSDOS version is using the conio routines of the
Borland - C compilers for cursor movement. The <TT>doscur.h</TT>
header file substitutes the curses commands.<BR>
<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.
<OL>
<LI>Download the source package from the Download Page
<LI>Unzip the package with the command:
<PRE CLASS="examp">
gunzip -c bvi-1.3.0.src.tar.gz | tar xvf
</PRE>
<LI> Load the tcconfig file (located in the <TT>bc</TT> subdirectory
for Borland - C).
<LI> Press F9-Make
</OL>
