You may move VersaForm version 1.3 Release 2 (Applied Software Technology) to
a hard disk for use with Catalyst. These instructions assume you are moving
VersaForm to a ProFile (with driver name .PROFILE). Substitute the name of
your hard disk driver for .PROFILE if you wish to install VersaForm on a
different hard disk.
COPY PROCEDURE:
1. Boot the Catalyst diskette (if you haven't already).
2. From the Catalyst main menu select the Systems Utilities Program.
3. Enter "F" for File handling commands.
4. Enter "M" for Make a new subdirectory.
5. Enter "CATALYST/VF"
6. Enter "50" for the subdirectory size.
7. In the same manner, create the subdirectorys:"CATALYST/VFD" and
"CATALYST/VF/WORK" also with room for 50 files.
8. Press "ESCAPE".
9. Enter "C" for Copy Files.
10. Copy all the files on diskette #1 to the subdirectory "CATALYST/VF/="
except for the following:
SYSTEM.MISCINFO SYSTEM.PASCAL SYSTEM.LIBRARY
SYSTEM.STARTUP BJTERM and BJSTART.CODE
To do this, type ".D1/" and press the up arrow key. A list of files is
displayed in a box. The up and down arrow keys allow you to move an inverse
bar over the name of your choice. Pressing the right arrow key marks the file
so as to include it in the copy process. Mark all files to be copied in this
way. When all files are marked press RETURN.
11. After all files have been copied, repeat step 10 for disks #2, #3, and #4.
.
NOTE: The files "RMSG2", "RMSG1", "RMSG0" and "CPCMENU" are duplicated on
disk 4. When System Utilities asks if the previous copy of these files on the
ProFile should be deleted, respond with "N".
12. Copy all files on diskette #5 to the subdirectory "CATALYST/VFD/=".
13. Copy "BJSTART.CODE" from the 3 DRIVE/HARD DISK boot diskette to
"BJSTART.CODE".
14. Copy "SYSTEM.LIBRARY" from the 3 DRIVE/HARD DISK boot diskette to the
following files:
BJSTART.LIB
CATALYST/VF/DESIGN.LIB
CATALYST/VF/FILING.LIB
CATALYST/VF/REPORT.LIB
CATALYST/VF/CPRINT.LIB
CATALYST/VF/PF.LIB
Additional Instructions
In order for VersaForm to find all of its files on your hard disk you must
modify all the directory names within the program.
1. Boot the "3 DRIVE/HARD DISK" diskette.
2. Select option "7" (Exit to Pascal).
3. Type "X" for X(ecute from the Pascal Command Line.
NOTE: If you are using a hard disk other than ProFile, substitute the VOLUME
name of your hard disk for /PROFILE in steps #4, #12, and #16.
4. Type "/PROFILE/CATALYST/VF/BJSETUP" in response to "Execute what file?".
5. Enter "5" for Customize existing configuration.
6. Press "RETURN" for the "*BJTERM" question.
7. Enter "N" in response to "Reconfigure function keys?".
8. Enter "N" in response to "Reconfigure dummy data character?".
9. Enter "N" in response to "Reconfigure reverse video?".
10. Enter "Y" or "N" to Reconfigure printer characteristics as required.
11. Enter "Y" to Reconfigure volume/directory names.
12. Set Program volume/directory names as follows:
Design program = /PROFILE/CATALYST/VF
Filing program = /PROFILE/CATALYST/VF
Report program = /PROFILE/CATALYST/VF
Copy/Prnt program = /PROFILE/CATALYST/VF
Rptwrk disk = /PROFILE/CATALYST/VF/WORK
Default files vol = /PROFILE/CATALYST/VFD
13. Enter "N" for Diagnostic mode.
14. Enter "Y" to write new configuration to disk.
15. Since you do not want to write copies of the configuration to separate
disks, enter "N" for this question.

Pascal Command Line.
12. Enter "BJSTART.CODE" when you are asked for the program path.
13. You will be asked if this entry is correct. If it is, answer "Y" then
