--- contents of /usr/demo ---
|
|
|
|
... THIS DOCUMENT IS NOT GUARANTEED TO BE UP TO DATE, USE WITH A GRAIN OF
|
|
SALT. After all, these are only demos.
|
|
|
|
... Refer to the system administrator's manual for instructions on pulling
|
|
the demos programs off the release tape(s).
|
|
|
|
... All of the demos will run on all surfaces unless specifically noted.
|
|
This incudes: all -1 monochrome and color frame buffers
|
|
|
|
... If run from the environment where the display is desired simply enter
|
|
the demo name. In order to change the display surface give the demo
|
|
name followed by the option "-d /dev/surface".
|
|
|
|
The -d option is not supported by all demos.
|
|
|
|
... Some programs that do not use the mouse or keyboard for input can also
|
|
be run with a "-q" option which allows the program to quickly terminate.
|
|
This allows several different demos to be run within a shell script.
|
|
|
|
... Demos running on color surfaces started from b/w windows cannot use
|
|
mouse input so it makes no sense to run draw and shaded in this fashion.
|
|
|
|
... To run a demo you can either "cd /usr/demo" or change your path to also
|
|
look in the /usr/demo directory for binaries.
|
|
|
|
... All demos can be interrupted by ctrl-C. (except for demos that mask off
|
|
input running in shelltools).
|
|
|
|
... All demos are distributed in compiled form, negating the need for the
|
|
user to unload the programming environment for building those programs.
|
|
The permissions are set at 555 for all executables, protecting the user
|
|
from accidentally overwriting or removing the programs.
|
|
|
|
... The current release incorporates demo programs for OpenWindows. Within
|
|
the Makefiles for which these programs are built, the macro OPENWINHOME
|
|
indicates the location for the include files and libraries. The macro
|
|
is predefined to /usr/openwin. The user can override this by making
|
|
OPENWINHOME an environment variable using 'setenv' and doing a 'make -e'.
