SETUP.BAT DOS Setup program used to install FORTRAN

MICROSOFT FORTRAN 5.1 BATCH SETUP UTILITY
=========================================
The SETUP.BAT batch file copies the files from the Microsoft FORTRAN
5.1 distribution disks to your hard drive.
To use the batch file, insert the enclosed HF0483 disk in your floppy disk drive and type "setup" (without the quotation marks) at the command prompt using the syntax described in the "Usage Syntax" section below. Setup must be run from the floppy disk drive from which you intend to install FORTRAN (for example, you cannot run Setup from drive A and put the FORTRAN disks in drive B).
NOTE: Do not execute the files SETUP1.BAT or SETUP2.BAT; they are companion files that are called from SETUP.BAT.Setup modifies your PATH environment variable while it executes. If you break out of the batch file, you must reset your PATH. If Setup completes normally, your PATH will be reset automatically. Depending on the option you select, the files copied by Setup will require the following amount of disk space:
9.2 MB (megabyte) if all files are copied 6.1 MB if only DOS files are copied 6.5 MB if only OS/2 files are copied 7.1 MB if only DOS and Windows files are copiedIf you intend to build combined libraries, you will need an additional 300K of disk space for each library you build.
USAGE SYNTAX
setup <TARGET_SYSTEM> <drive_letter> [<directory_path>]You must specify the type of system you are installing for and a drive letter for Setup to use. The options for the target system are D for DOS, O for OS/2, W for DOS and Windows, and A for all files.
NOTE: The target system letter must be an uppercase letter.You also have the option of specifying a base directory path for Setup to use. Setup will copy files into sub-directories with the default names recommended by the regular Setup program (such as \BINB, \LIB, and so on). The optional directory path should be specified with the following syntax:
<top_level_directory> <next_level_directory> <next_level_directory>Note that only three levels are supported and that there are spaces, NOT backslash ( \) characters, separating the directory names.
Examples
Command Result
------- ------
setup D c fortran Copies files for a DOS system onto
the hard drive C in a directory
called FORTRAN with subdirectories
C:\FORTRAN\BINB, C:\FORTRAN\LIB, and
so on
setup A e Copies all files onto the hard drive
E in subdirectories E:\BINB, E:\LIB,
and so on
setup W d mslang fortran f510 Copies files for a DOS and Windows
system onto the hard drive D in a
directory called MSLANG\FORTRAN\F510
with subdirectories
D:\MSLANG\FORTRAN\F510\BINB,
D:\MSLANG\FORTRAN\F510\LIB, and so on
AFTER YOU RUN SETUPAfter you run Setup, you must change your AUTOEXEC.BAT file and CONFIG.SYS file so that FORTRAN will run correctly. Please refer to pages 21-23 of the "Microsoft FORTRAN Installing and Using the Professional Development System" guide for information on the required changes. For example, if you install the FORTRAN files on drive C in a directory named FORTRAN, you should make the following changes to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file:
SET PATH=C:\FORTRAN\BINB;C:\FORTRAN\BIN;...<existing PATH> SET LIB=C:\FORTRAN\LIB SET TMP=C:\FORTRAN\BINB SET INIT=C:\FORTRAN\INIT SET INCLUDE=C:\FORTRAN\INCLUDE SET HELPFILES=C:\FORTRAN\HELP\*.HLPSetup copies the files HIMEM.SYS, RAMDRIVE.SYS, and SMARTDRV.SYS to the directory specified for DOS executable files. HIMEM.SYS allows you to debug programs that approach 640K in size by using extended memory on machines with 286, 386, or 486 CPUs. To avoid possible conflicts, use RAMDRIVE.SYS for memory disk emulation and SMARTDRV.SYS for disk caching. Other disk emulation and disk caching programs may conflict with HIMEM.SYS. A more detailed explanation of these three device drivers and memory configuration (expanded versus extended) is located in Chapter 2 of the "Microsoft FORTRAN Installing and Using the Professional Development System" guide on pages 24-25.
MICROSOFT FORTRAN 5.1 COMBINED LIBRARY BUILDING UTILITY
=======================================================
The BUILDLIB.BAT batch file builds combined libraries for Microsoft
FORTRAN 5.1.
This file should be run from the \LIB subdirectory for FORTRAN 5.1. The Setup batch program copies BUILDLIB.BAT to this directory. The following assumptions are made:
USAGE SYNTAX
buildlib <library_name>Where the library name is of the form:
mLIBFfscThe letters m, f, s, and c are placeholders for the following values:
Placeholder Meaning Values
----------- ------- ------
m Memory model M (medium)
L (large)
f Floating-point math library A (alternate math)
E (emulator)
7 (8087/287/387)
s Operating system R (DOS real mode)
P (OS/2 protected mode)
c C compatibility C (C-compatible library)
[blank] (non-C-compatible
library)
This information is similar to the information on pages 19 and 20 of
the "Microsoft FORTRAN Installing and Using the Professional
Development System" guide.
NOTE: If you build a library with C compatibility, routines that are common between the two languages are LEFT OUT of the FORTRAN library. This means that you must always link your program with both the FORTRAN library and its C counterpart. Library Name Examples
Name Meaning ---- ------- LLIBF7R Large model, coprocessor math library for DOS LLIBFER Large model, emulation math library for DOS LLIBFERC C compatible, large model, emulation math library for DOS MLIBF7P Medium model, coprocessor math library for OS/2(The .LIB extension is assumed for library names and should NOT be included when running BUILDLIB.BAT.) If you are installing for DOS and are unsure what options to choose, we recommend that you build the LLIBFER library if you do not have a coprocessor on your machine, or the LLIBF7R library if you do have a coprocessor.
IMPORTANT: RENAMING LIBRARIESThe FORTRAN compiler uses a default naming convention different from the BUILDLIB.BAT batch file and the standard Setup program. The convention is
mLIBFORfwhere m and f have the same values as above. The naming convention does not reflect the operating system the library was created for or tell whether it is compatible with C. If you install for only one operating system, and without C compatibility, we recommend that after you use BUILDLIB.BAT to build a library, you rename the library using the mLIBFORf convention. For example: LLIBFER.LIB would be renamed LLIBFORE.LIB. You can find more information on library naming conventions and related compiler options on pages 322-326 in Chapter 7 of the "Microsoft FORTRAN Reference" manual.
