SCANUAF Installation Instructions --------------------------------- 1) Read the release notes file SCANUAF020.RELEASE_NOTES, especially if you are currently using a previous version of SCANUAF. 2) Execute BUILD_SCANUAF.COM to compile and link the SCANUAF executable. This will work on both VAX and AXP platforms. Object code and executable code are included for each platform with this distribution in case you don't have a Fortran compiler and/or you don't want to relink for some reason. 3) Edit the file SCANUAF.NODES to include your list of node names and authorization file locations. See section 2.8 of the user guide. The sample SCANUAF.NODES included with the distribution shows some possible syntax specifications for pathnames for authorization files. 4) The file SCANUAF.HLP is a help file that you can insert in one of your help libraries, if so desired. If you do so, then it can be accessed via the command $ HELP SCANUAF from DCL and also via the command SCANUAF> HELP from within SCANUAF. If you do not enter this module in any of your help libraries, then no help will be available from within SCANUAF. 5) Copy either SCANUAF.EXE_VAX or SCANUAF.EXE_AXP (whichever is appropriate for your hardware platform) to anywhere you want as SCANUAF.EXE. Typically, you would copy it to SYS$SYSTEM (or SYS$COMMON:[SYSEXE] in a cluster environment), but that is not required. Note that the user guide assumes that SCANUAF.EXE is in SYS$SYSTEM. 6) SCANUAF.NODES must be copied to SYS$SYSTEM (or SYS$COMMON:[SYSEXE]), because SCANUAF opens the file as 'SYS$SYSTEM:SCANUAF.NODES'. If, for some reason, you do not wish to do this, then you can put SCANUAF.NODES wherever you want, modify the source code to reflect this, and then rebuild the executable. You could also define a logical name to point to SCANUAF.NODES and modify the source to open the file via the logical name specification. Note that the user guide assumes that SCANUAF.NODES is in SYS$SYSTEM. That's it. I tried to make SCANUAF as as simple as possible to install and use (no logical names to define, no startup procedure to modify, no images to install). If you have problems, you can e-mail me at the above address until 28-JAN-1994, after which I will no longer be at Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory. I did a bit of a rush job to get SCANUAF updated before leaving PPPL, so hopefully I didn't introduce any new bugs. Enjoy!
