		| How to install Euphoria |
		+-------------------------+

 Configuration Information
 -------------------------
 To install Euphoria you need:
	* a 386 or higher PC
	* at least 640K of memory 
	  (in some cases you might also need a few hundred K 
	   of free extended memory. Check the MEM command.)
	* 2 Mb of free hard disk space. 

 The Install Procedure 
 ---------------------
	1. cd into the directory containing the Euphoria files

	2. type: 
		 install


 For instance, if you have Euphoria on a floppy you would type the
 following two commands:

	a:            (or b:)
	install

 If you have downloaded Euphoria and pkunzip'd in (say) C:\TMP you 
 would type:

	cd c:\tmp
	install

 If you happen to have unzipped into C:\EUPHORIA, that's fine, cd into it
 and type: install.

 You can also install under Windows by double-clicking on install.bat.

 You will be asked which drive to put the EUPHORIA directory on. Later 
 you will be asked to approve any changes to your autoexec.bat file. 
 Finally, you need to reboot your machine so the new autoexec.bat will
 take effect.

 After installing, see DOC\WHAT2DO.DOC for ideas on how to use this package. 
 You should also read README.DOC if you haven't done so already.

 The install program is written in Euphoria. See install.ex.

		Enjoy!

 
 How to uninstall Euphoria
 -------------------------
 You'll never want to do this but ...
   1. delete the EUPHORIA directory
   2. remove the 2 references to "EUPHORIA" from your autoexec.bat file
 
 
 =============================================================================
 If you have problems installing ...
 -----------------------------------
 * Try installing under plain DOS, outside of Windows. 
 
 * Disable or cut back programs such as SMARTDRV that may be consuming
   large amounts of extended memory.
 
 * Try typing:
 	
 	SET CAUSEWAY=LOWMEM:80
   
   before you run install.bat
   	
 * There are several possible reasons why the install program will decide not
   to edit your autoexec.bat file. Your PATH may be too close to the 127 
   character limit; autoexec.bat may be read-only; etc. If this happens you 
   should follow the manual procedure part B below.
 
 * If your system does not use an autoexec.bat file (e.g. Windows NT and
   possibly Windows 95) then set the EUDIR and PATH variables in whatever
   way your system allows. If you have an autoexec.bat file, but it doesn't
   contain a PATH command, you will have to create one that includes 
   C:\EUPHORIA\BIN.
 
 * If you are very low on disk space the XCOPY command used by the install
   program might fail, even though you seem to have enough space. Free up a 
   few megabytes, and run install.bat again.

 Manual Install Procedure (most people can ignore this)
 ------------------------
 In order to show exactly what the install procedure does, and to provide
 support for people with special needs, or anyone who has trouble using the
 automatic install procedure, we outline a set of manual steps below.
 
 Euphoria comes to you on either a floppy disk or a .zip file.
 It contains 90+ files. Initially these will all be in one directory
 on your floppy, or in a hard disk directory that you pkunzip'd into.

 You can install Euphoria on any drive and in any directory that you
 want. Below we assume that you want to put it in C:\EUPHORIA.
 
 Part A - set up files

   1.  Make the EUPHORIA directory. e.g.

	  mkdir c:\euphoria

   2.  Copy the 90+ files into it.
	  
	  copy *.* c:\euphoria

   3.  Change directories into c:\euphoria.

	  c:
	  cd \euphoria

   4.  Organize the files into subdirectories.

	  The install.ex program contains a list of the subdirectories
	  and the files that should go into each subdirectory. You could
	  arrange the files yourself, but it will be a lot faster if
	  you just type:
		install
	  at this point and let the install program perform this step.
	  After asking you for the drive letter, it will detect that the 
	  earlier steps have been performed already. You don't have to 
	  accept any changes that it proposes to make to your autoexec.bat 
	  file.
 
 Part B - edit autoexec.bat

   5.  In the file  c:\autoexec.bat  add  c:\euphoria\bin  to the list of 
       directories in your PATH command. You might use the MS-DOS EDIT
       command or any other text editor to do this. e.g.

		edit c:\autoexec.bat

       (Although Euphoria is not fully installed at this point, you could 
	type:
		cd c:\euphoria\bin
		ed c:\autoexec.bat
        to edit using the Euphoria editor. See doc\ed.doc.)
	
   6.  In the same autoexec.bat file add a new line:

	  set eudir=c:\euphoria
 
       The eudir environment variable indicates the full path to 
       the main Euphoria directory. 

   7. Press Control-Alt-Delete to reboot. 
      This will define your new PATH and EUDIR environment variables.
