Yaroze Tutorial Programs - readme.txt ------------------------------------- File name - comp_tut.zip Writer - Robert Swan Email - rs108@mdx.ac.uk Home pages - http://www.netyaroze-europe.com/~middex2 To unzip the programs --------------------- These must be unzipped onto your hard drive, recreating the directory structure as you do so. I believe winZip does this automatically, but when using DOS pkunzip you must specify this in the command line. The correct format to use is as follows: pkunzip comp_tut.zip -d Running the programs --------------------- When unzipped, there will be eleven subdirectories. A DATA folder holds all .tim and .tmd information for all the programs, and then the other ten folders holds an example program that corresponds to each of the steps in the 3D tutorial by Peter Passmore (which can be found on my homepage above). To run any of the sample programs, go into the appropriate STEP folder, and compile the program by typing: make at the command line. Once compiled, you can transfer the program to the Yaroze by typing: siocons auto When viewing the programs ------------------------- When viewing the files using an editor, it is advisable to set the screen up as I have done, that is with no word wrap, over 100 columns of text, and with tabs set for every 2 characters. This will make the program look as neat as I intended it to. If your editor can't handle this, I suggest you download winEdit, which is what I use. (Can be found with any decent search on the net) When comparing these programs to the tutorial file, you may notice quite a few differences. These are for one of two reasons - 1) I deliberately changed all of the variable names, and most of the function names. This was because to me it made things clearer than using the suggested names. 2) there are some mistakes in the tutorial which mean that if you copied the text exactly, it wouldn't work!
