10. Building and installing JED requires that you also have the S-Lang library 2 to link to. Build it first. 3 41. Pick some place for JED. 5 JED is distributed in a TREE structure: 6 7 JED_ROOT: 8 JED_ROOT:[src] 9 JED_ROOT:[info] 10 JED_ROOT:[doc] 11 JED_ROOT:[lib] 12 JED_ROOT:[bin.vms] 13 14 Here JED_ROOT can be anything. Its value is up to you. It should be a 15 concealed logical. For example, suppose that JED is unpacked in a 16 directory 17 18 dev$source:[editors.jed] 19 20 You CANNOT simply define JED_ROOT to be this value. Instead, it must be a 21 concealed logical defined as: 22 23 $ define/job/trans=(concealed) jed_root dev$source:[editors.jed.] 24 25 It is important to note the final `.' after jed. This logical must be 26 placed in the job table; system managers may put it in the system table 27 instead. 28 29 Instead of the above, I recommend something like: 30 31 $ jedroot = f$logical("DEV$SOURCE") - "]" + "EDITORS.JED.]" 32 $ define/job/trans=(concealed) jed_root 'jedroot' 33 34 It is best to put the definition in the appropriate startup file 35 (systartup.com, sylogin.com, login.com). 36 37 Note: If are currently using a very old version of JED and and you have 38 JED_LIBRARY defined as a logical, please remove it. 39 402. Build the jed.exe executable file: After you have properly setup the 41 JED_ROOT logical, change to the directory 'jed_root:[src]'. You should 42 now edit the 'vmsmake.com' file to indicate the location of the S-Lang 43 library constructed in step 0. Directions are included in VMSMAKE.COM. 44 45 Currently the file is structured such that typing `@VMSMAKE' at the VMS 46 DCL prompt will make jed.exe for systems which have DEC's VMS C compiler. 47 For systems that use GCC, `@vmsmake gcc' might also work. That is: 48 49 $ @vmsmake ! VMS CC, DEC C 50 $ @vmsmake gcc ! GNU GCC 51 52 After building the JED.EXE and XJED.EXE images, copy them into the 53 JED_ROOT:[BIN.VMS] directory, giving them architecture-specific 54 names such as JED.VAX_EXE or JED.ALPHA_EXE. 55 564. Put one of the following in either your sylogin.com for all users 57 or in login.com. Note that JED_ROOT must be defined! 58 59 $ @JED_ROOT:[bin.vms]init_jed.com 0 0 ! no kept editor/no mail 60 $ @JED_ROOT:[bin.vms]init_jed.com 0 1 ! no kept editor/ use for mail 61 $ @JED_ROOT:[bin.vms]init_jed.com 1 0 ! kept editor/ no mail (most systems) 62 $ @JED_ROOT:[bin.vms]init_jed.com 1 1 ! kept editor/use for mail 63 64 The first flag indicates whether jed should be installed as a standalone 65 executable or as a kept editor. Use 1 for kepteditor or 0 for standalone. 66 The second flag indicates whether or not mail$edit logical should be 67 defined to point to jed. If it is set to 1, vms mail will call jed to 68 edit the mail message. If JED is run as a kept editor, mail will simply 69 attach to JED for editing. Most systems will probably use the 3rd 70 choice above. 71 725. The file JED_ROOT:[lib]jed.rc contains some default settings for 73 users that do not have a jed.rc file in SYS$LOGIN. If 74 SYS$LOGIN:jed.rc exists, then it will be used instead. By default, 75 jed starts up with EMACS keybindings. You may want to specify some 76 other emulation, such as the Borland IDE emulation or even EDT 77 emulation. It is not necessary for every user to have a copy of 78 this file. 79 806. It may be necessary to edit site.sl if you have an info directory where 81 info files are kept. If you do not understand this statement, then you 82 do not have info. 83 847. Make sure all users who will be using JED have permission to do so. The 85 easiest way to do this is to type: 86 87 $ set file/protection=(w:re) jed_root:[000000...] 88 898. Optional but highly recommended. Preparse the S-Lang files. This 90 is done by running JED as: 91 92 $ jed -batch -n -l preparse 93 94 This creates pre-parsed *.slc files that load quicker than *.sl files. 95 It is also a convenient test to see if JED has been installed properly. 96 97 Once you do this, make sure that you give the WORLD read permission on 98 the files. Do: 99 100 $ set file/protection=(W:RE) JED_ROOT:[lib]*.slc 101 102 !!! Do not use *.*. Use *.slc. 103 1049. It is possible that you have the PC distribution. This distribution 105 truncates filenames to 8+3 style names. If you have 106 JED_ROOT:[LIB]VMS_SHEL.COM, rename it to VMS_SHELL.COM. Also make sure 107 that JED_ROOT:[INFO] contains dir.info and not dir.inf. 108 10910. Read the bit about defaults.sl in install.all for customizing your 110 distribution. 111 11211. Please email bugs, installation problems, or hints about how to better 113 install JED to `davis@space.mit.edu'. 114
