This directory and its subdirectories contain the files necessary
for making ex/vi in the BTL UNIX environment:
This is a list of all the important directories and what's
hidden under each.
misc - contains files used in the "make" of ex/vi
{ mkstr.c, xstr.c ...}
vax - ex/vi source directory for the vax, 3B, C70, 370, &
pdp 11/70 (UNIX type=ov -- with overlays)
pdp11 - ex/vi source directory for the pdp11/70 (UNIX type=od
without overlays)
local - contains "uparm.h" which must be edited to
reflect your system setup!
EXAMPLE:
--------
#define libpath(file) "/usr/lib/file"
#define loclibpath(file) "/usr/lib/file"
#define binpath(file) "/usr/lbin/file"
#define usrpath(file) "/usr/file"
** libpath is where ex/vi expects the strings file
(ex2.16strings or ex3.9strings...this file is
made as the ex/vi source is compiled), and
ex/vi 's recover & preserve commands (ex2.16preserve
or ex3.9preserve).
** usrpath is where the preserved files are held after
a hangup or fail..."preserve" is tacked onto
the end of the usrpath string .
Look through the source, make all necessary changes to
local/uparm.h (& ex source if necessary) and then do
a "makevi". makevi is a shell which directs you through
a "make" of ex/vi.
PATHs to look at (and possibly change) include:
vax/makefile.u3 ---|
pdp11/makefile.u3 ---| the editor's string file,
preserve and recover commands all are installed in
${DESTDIR}${LIBDIR}....make sure this is where you
want them to go. This path must be the same as
the path defined in local/uparm.h ...c variable
name is usrpath.
In the event of a hangup, the editor will place a
copy of the temporary file in the place defined as
${DESTDIR}/usr/preserve.
