!InstallJF/!Help

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

                                ========

Purpose : To install the !JFShared directory into !System

Usage   : Run the application.
          Click Install.
          Click Close.
          Any errors are probably due to non-standard !System structure, or
          fiddling :-)

Why ?
=====
The !JFShared directory contains resources for use with any of Justin
Fletcher's programs. These mainly include Basic libraries which are used in
many of his programs.

Non-Risc PC users
-----------------
This install program simply places these in the System folder and allows it
to boot correctly. It will alter your !System.!Boot file so that it the
JFShared directory is booted at the same time as the !System directory is.
Unlike the CC installation program, the key word here is 'alter' and it
should be quite obvious which lines have been added to the !System.!Boot
file.

Risc PC Users
-------------
Risc PC users have, in the past, found problems installing JFShared using
this installer. These problems should now be fixed and any prior
installations of JFShared will now be removed from !System and installed in
the !Boot.Resources directory where they will be booted automatically. Any
changes made by earlier installations will be undone as these are no longer
necessary.

History
-------
Version 1.00 : ?? ??? ????
               First version written
               Very simple, with no real checking as to what it was doing -
               like a certain CC product :-( Just a BASIC program
               
Version 1.01 : ?? ??? ????
               Second version (released with JFShared 2.21)
               Now made to look like an application, and has a lovelly check
               routine to see if the library has already been installed.

Version 1.02 : 15 Apr 1996
               Third version (released with JFShared 2.26)
               Full application with checks for System directory, and
               JFShared being available, and System:!Boot file created if
               necessary.
               Should now cope with most eventualities, and notify the user
               of anything it can't handle.

Version 1.03 : 17 Apr 1996
               Bug fixes (released with JFShared 2.27)
               After claiming most strongly to Chris that it'll work with
               anything and then seeing it patently fail, the checking code
               has been improved slightly to cope with bugs in Longfiles.
               Grrr... /Now/ it should cope with most eventualities !

Version 1.04 : 20 Apr 1996
               Bug fixes (release with JFShared 2.28)
               Andrew Theirry (sp?) spotted a minor but irritating bug which
               stopped the program installing anything. Doh, aren't I stupid.
               How do you spell system ? It's not systeam, that's for sure.

Version 1.05 : 18 Aug 1996
               Bug fixes (release with JFShared 2.31)
               A couple of people spotted that RPC's have their System:!Boot
               file protected and so the program could not install.
               Now sets the access to WR/wr before changing it.

Version 1.06 : 17 Oct 1996
               Bugfixes and improvements
               This is the alternate to the AOL release which is plain silly.

Version 1.07 : 08 Nov 1996
               Moved System:!Boot updater to end.

Version 1.08 : 22 Nov 1996
               Changes System: to <System$Dir>. due to RPC problems

Version 1.09 : 23 Nov 1996
               Automatically boots the new version of JFShared
               Released with JFShared 2.40

Version 1.10 : 08 Feb 1997
               Now modifies installation to install more sensibly on
               Risc PC boot sequences - if you have a RPC boot sequence
               on an older computer this will NOT be recognised.
Version 1.11 : 31 May 1997
               Now it /really/ should work on a RPC !
