FILES=20

8.) Begin execution of the batch stream to build PC SCHEME:
- Press the PRNT key (to cause subsequent messages to be echoed
to the printer).
- Type A:MASTER
The batch stream will instruct you to insert the diskettes listed
above. Once the necessary files have been copied to the Winchester,
the actual build process will begin and no further attention is
required until the installation disks are ready to be made
(the batch stream will wait for you at that point).
9.) Each of the assemblies in the batch stream should terminate with the
following message:
Warning Severe
Errors Errors
0 0
10.) C compilations may produce warning messages and this is all right.
There should be no error messages, however.
11.) DOS messages about "unable to create directory" during CD commands
or "file not found" during DEL commands can be ignored.
11.) After the assemblies, compilations, and linking have completed, the
batch stream will invoke the PCS.EXE file several times to compile
the Scheme compiler source files, Scoops source files, and Edwin.
You will see some warning messages like
[WARNING: modifying an 'integrable' variable: xxxxxx]
displayed on the screen, however they will not be written to the
printer.
12.) When you are prompted to, insert the first blank formatted 360KB
diskette into drive B (*not* drive A) and press RETURN to continue.
At the next prompt, remove the diskette and replace it with the
second blank formatted 360KB diskette in drive B and press RETURN.
At the next prompt, remove the diskette and replace it with the
third blank formatted 360KB diskette in drive B and press RETURN.
At the next prompt, remove the diskette.

***** Addendum for creating 3.5-inch installation disks. *****

- Put a blank, formatted 3.5" diskette into drive C.
- Put the PC Scheme Installation diskette into drive A and do:
COPY A:*.* C:
- Put the PC Scheme Autoload diskette into drive A (do not
remove the diskette from drive C) and do:
COPY A:*.* C:
