You can read the release notes directly from the ON-Line help.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The ON-line help file containing the release notes is titled:
|
||
|
|
QPENV.ENV. If you are running HELP from a floppy drive make sure
|
||
|
|
that QPENV.ENV is present on that drive.

Special Setup Notes
|
||
|
|
-------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For your convenience SETUP has been modified and the "path
|
||
|
|
setting screens" section in the "Installing QuickPascal"
|
||
|
|
chapter of "Up and Running" has changed. You will now only
|
||
|
|
set three "paths" instead of four. The DOC path has been
|
||
|
|
eliminated.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Documentation Note:
|
||
|
|
-------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Page 17 of "Up and Running" tells you that to run QuickPascal
|
||
|
|
you should put disk 1 in drive A. It should instead say
|
||
|
|
put "Program disk" in drive A. In addition "SYSTEM.QPU" is
|
||
|
|
now on the "Libraries" disk instead of on DISK 1.

Special Instructions for QP Express
|
||
|
|
-----------------------------------
|
||
|
|
You may have difficulty running the QP Express Computer-Based
|
||
|
|
Training (CBT) program due to your video driver/graphics card
|
||
|
|
combination. Try the following:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Make a backup copy of the QP Express or QP Express/QP Advisor
|
||
|
|
disk. Use the backup copy for the remainder of this procedure.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. On the backup copy of the QP Express or QP Express/QP Advisor disk
|
||
|
|
you will find files with the extension .VID. Each of these files
|
||
|
|
is a driver for a specific type of graphics card. The following
|
||
|
|
drivers support the indicated graphics cards:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ATT6300.VID For Olivetti and ATT PCs.
|
||
|
|
CGASNO.VID For CGA cards that produce a snow effect.
|
||
|
|
ERICSSON.VID For Ericsson PCs
|
||
|
|
HERC102.VID For the Hercules 102 card
|
||
|
|
HERC112.VID For the Hercules 112 card
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you use one of these computers/displays, rename the appropriate
|
||
|
|
driver to SCREEN.VID. For example, if you run an AT&T computer,
|
||
|
|
type: RENAME ATT6300.VID SCREEN.VID
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. You can now resume SETUP or run the CBT directly by typing: LEARN.

Special Instructions for Windows 386 Users
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
If you want to use QP under Windows 386 please set the
|
||
|
|
following in your WIN.INI file under the header [win386]:
|
||
|
|
emmsize=0
|
||
|
|
This setting will prevent a a potential conflict in EMS
