SETUP instructions for
|
||
PC Emulation virtual hard disk and real PC floppy disk access
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
1. Make sure all of the normal PCE .DCOM files are loaded to run PCE:
|
||
(PCEWINDOW, PCE, PCEERD, PCEDISPLAY, PCEKEYBOARD).
|
||
|
||
2. Select PC Emulation on the background MENU. This may take a while to load the PC fonts.
|
||
|
||
3. Put MSDOS disk in floppy drive. Select BOOT in the command window.
|
||
|
||
4. If the PCE boots ok, then select QUIT in the the command window.
|
||
|
||
5. Now we will make a virtual hard disk for the PCE.
|
||
|
||
From LISP do the following:
|
||
|
||
1_(PCE.CREATE.ERDFILE 'PCE.DISK 50)
|
||
|
||
(* this will make a lisp file PCE.DISK which is nearly 2
|
||
megabytes big - make sure you have enough disk space)
|
||
|
||
6. Reboot the PCE (BOOT command) and make sure configuration has the right file name PCE.DISK for the ERDFILE using the CONFIG command.
|
||
|
||
7. From the PC window:
|
||
|
||
-FDISK
|
||
(* create DOS partition using all of the disk )
|
||
|
||
-FORMAT C:/V/S
|
||
ÿÿ ( * f o r m a t t h e r i g i d d i s k , p u t a s y s t e m o n i t , a n d l a b e l )ÿ
|
||
|
||
-COPY A:*.* C:
|
||
ÿÿ ( * c o p i e s a l l o f t h e s y s t e m f i l e s f r o m f l o p p y t o E R D )
|
||
ÿ
|
||
8. Select QUIT from the COMMAND window.
|
||
|
||
9. You may now boot from the ERD (emulated rigid disk) by selecting FIXED DISK as boot
|
||
device and Set-Config from the configuration window.
|
||
|
||
10. From LISP exec:
|
||
|
||
2_ LOAD(VPCDISK.DCOM)
|
||
(* loads in LISP virtual PC disk/floppy and real PC floppy access)
|
||
3_ (VPCDISK.CREATE.DEVICE 'PCDISK 'PCE.DISK T)
|
||
(* associates ERDFILE PCE.DISK with a device name PCDISK)
|
||
4_ DIR {PCDISK}PCDISK:*
|
||
(* directory listing of the PC DISK)
|
||
5_(SETQ PC.TEXTFILE.EXTENSIONS '(TXT PAS BAS 1 2 3]
|
||
(* list of PC file extensions which are treated as TEXT type files)
|
||
6_(VPCDISK.CREATE.DEVICE 'PCFLOPPY '{PCFLOPPY})
|
||
ÿÿ ( * a s s o c i a t e s r e a l P C f l o p p y d r i v e r w i t h { P C D I S K } d e v i c e P C F L O P P Y )ÿ
|
||
(* make sure real floppy is in the disk drive when you execute this)
|
||
7_DIR {PCDISK}PCFLOPPY:*
|
||
(* directory listing of the real floppy)
|
||
|
||
11. At this point you are set up to do any LISP commands you want such as Filebrowser, Hardcopy, TEdit, etc. using the {PCDISK}PCDISK: for the virtual hard disk, and {PCDISK}PCFLOPPY: for real PC floppies.
|
||
|
||
12. Try using Filebrowser and then selecting a textfile that has one of the extension names you setup in PC.TEXTFILE.EXTENSIONS above, and selecting HARDCOPY.
|
||
|
||
13. Try using TEDIT on a floppy file such as {PCDISK}PCFLOPPY:README.1 and then editing the file and writing (PUT) it back. and then reselect it from filebrowser and selecting hardcopy. (Make sure floppy is not write-protected.)
|
||
|
||
14. You may also access files on sub-directories. IE, {PCDISK}PCDISK:<DIR>FILE - However, you cannot delete or create directories from LISP. You have to do this from the PC window.
