First steps in a DOS environment
In this case you need first of all a Microsoft C-compiler. The
first step is to look at the files that you find in your directory,
and carefully to read the following two items that describe how you
get started:
- The first step is to check if there is already a file
test.c. In the case when you find such a file, then
you continue with the next item. If there is no such file, then
please copy one of the example files, say ex1.c in to
a file with the name test.c. This is done by entering
the line
copy ex1.c test.c
- Now you enter the line
make make.dos
and wait until the prompt returns. This will need some time while
your machine is busy in translating the .c-files into
executable ones.
Supposing that your C-compiler was installed in a correct way then
you can now proceed with the steps that are described on the
following pages except that wherever in a UNIX environment you use
the command a.out you have to enter test
in your DOS environment. And, of course, you have to use make
make.dos instead of make.
A problem may arise from the fact that SYMMETRICA is quite a big
program system, and so, in a DOS environment, you better use a
subset of the available routines only, for example only such
routines that are necessary for character calculations or for
matrix representations.
