From: Rick Conn <RCONN@SIMTEL20.ARPA> FYI -- I thought there might be a general interest in this. I don't think the phase 2 dist included one INS file for all of the phase 2 tools. You will have to create your own (this is a simple text file) for installation of the tools your are interested in.

Moore <MLY.G.DRU%MIT-OZ@MIT-MC.ARPA>" of Wed 24 Oct 84 17:15:03-MDT Z3INS installs one or more programs by reading an environment descriptor and an INS file. The INS file contains the names of the programs to be installed. To install VMENU, create an INS file with the name VMENU.COM in it and then run the command: Z3INS SYS.ENV VMENU.INS where VMENU.INS is the nme of the file containing a line with VMENU.COM on it and SYS.ENV is your current ENV file. See (type out) the file ZCPR3.INS and look at it for an example. The reason VMENU could not find the shell stack, assuming that you have one, is that it is NOT installed. All programs like VMENU, VFILER, DU3, etc, have to be installed (by Z3INS or by hand). See the installation manual for details on installing the shell stack. That had to have been done when you first built your ZCPR3 system. Rick ------- -------
