Install on Floppy disk System:

    Step 1: Format a new disk to use as a work disk.

    Step 2:  Place the Distribution Disk in Drive A: and the blank disk in
    Drive B:,  and at the A>  prompt enter "FINSTALL".  FINSTALL will copy
    the files listed below from the Distribution Disk onto the blank disk:

        GE.EXE           BUG.RPT          CR.SCR           ORDER.FRM
        GE.HLP           MENU.HLP         SETUP.HLP        EDITMENU.HLP
        EDIT.HLP         PRINT.HLP        EPSONFX.DRV      KEYMAP.EXE
        PCODES.EXE       UT.EXE           GU.EXE

    Step 3: Label the disk in drive B: as "GEdit Work Disk".

    Step 4:  Print the manual  -  place the Distribution Disk in drive A:,
    make sure the printer is ready, and at the A> prompt enter "PMANUAL".

    Step 5: Store the Distribution Disk in a safe place.

    Step 6:  Execute GEdit by placing the work disk in drive A: and at the
    A> prompt entering the command "GE" (or "GU").


Install on Hard Disk System:

    Step 1:  Place the  Distribution Disk  in the A: Drive,  and at the A>
    prompt enter "HINSTALL".

    Step 2:  Directions will be displayed on the screen. You will be asked
    to specify the directory on the hard disk where you want to locate the
    program file. If the directory does not exist it will be created.  The
    files listed below will be copied from the Distribution Disk into this
    directory.

                  GE.EXE                        BUG.RPT
                  ORDER.FRM                     KEYMAP.EXE
                  PCODES.EXE                    UT.EXE
                  GU.EXE

    Step 3:  You will be asked  to specify the directory  on the hard disk
    where you want to locate the support files.  If the directory does not
    exist it will be created.  The files listed below  will be copied from
    the Distribution Disk into this directory:

                  GE.HLP                        MENU.HLP
                  SETUP.HLP                     EDITMENU.HLP
                  EDIT.HLP                      PRINT.HLP
                  EPSONFX.DRV                   CR.SCR

    Step 4:  Modify the  autoexec.bat file  on the boot disk  to include a
    line to set  the environment variable  "support"  equal to the path in
    which the support files are located  (i.e. SET SUPPORT=C:\GE\SUPPORT).
    This will ensure that GEdit can always find its support files.

    Step 5: Modify the autoexec.bat file to include a line to set the path
    to the directory in which GE.EXE is located (i.e "PATH=C:\DOS;C:\GE").
    This will ensure that DOS can find GE.EXE if the default directory  is
    not the directory in which GE.EXE is located.

    Step 6:  Print the manual  -  place the Distribution Disk in drive A:,
    make sure the printer is ready, and at the A> prompt enter "PMANUAL".

    Step 7: Store the Distribution Disk in a safe place.

    Step 8:  Execute GEdit by entering the command "GE"  (or "GU")  at the
    DOS prompt.
