|
|
|
This Developer's Kit is a Cygnus Support Release: the programs in the
|
|
release have been tested both individually and as a coordinated suite of
|
|
tools.
|
|
|
|
The programs in this Developer's Kit are shipped as binaries,
|
|
preconfigured to run on Motorola 88K-based workstations ``out of the
|
|
box.''
|
|
|
|
We also include the full source code.
|
|
|
|
The individual programs are:
|
|
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|

@item
|
|
@sc{gnu emacs} (v18.57), the extensible text editor
|

all programs in Release m88k--11--91 is 32 megabytes.

The software is configured to go in @file{/usr/cygnus}; if you have
|

space available, but not in the same file system as @file{/usr}, you can
|
|
create @file{/usr/cygnus} as a symbolic link to the file system where

@unnumberedsubsec Reading the Tape
|
|
|
|
For certification purposes, the M88K Developer's Kit is packaged as two
|
|
QIC 150 tapes; one containing only binaries for all programs, and one
|
|
containing source.
|
|
|
|
Load the Cygnus Support binary tape into your system's tape drive.
|
|
You can extract the complete tape contents as follows:
|
|
@lisp
|
|
@cartouche
|
|
eg$ @b{mkdir /usr/cygnus} @i{only if /usr/cygnus did not exist}
|
|
eg$ @b{cd /usr/cygnus}
|
|
eg$ @b{tar xfv /dev/TAPE}
|
|
@end cartouche
|
|
@end lisp
|
|
|
|
This will create subdirectories @file{bin}, @file{lib}, and @file{man},
|
|
with the conventional meanings.
|
|
|
|
If you also want the source, for reference or modification, load the
|
|
Cygnus Support source tape into your tape drive, and repeat the
|
|
@code{tar} command:
|
|
@lisp
|
|
@cartouche
|
|
eg$ @b{tar xfv /dev/TAPE}
|
|
@end cartouche
|
|
@end lisp

@unnumberedsubsec Running the Programs
|
|
@c [FIXME-future:] orig includes fixincluded files... "bogus
|
|
@c but easiest". In some future release, CUST MUST RUN fixincludes ONCE PER OS!
|
|
@c [FIXME] how to select cross vs native compiler?
|
|
Any users who wish to run the Cygnus development tools will need to make
|
|
sure the @code{PATH} environment variable will find them. For example,
|
|
the following should go in a Bourne shell initialization file:
|
|
@lisp
|
|
@cartouche
|
|
@b{PATH=/usr/cygnus/bin:$PATH}
|
|
@end cartouche
|
|
@end lisp
|
|
|
|
To use the Cygnus man pages on line, you'll need to install them in your
|
|
system's @file{/usr/catman/u_man/man1} directory. For example, you can
|
|
copy them like this:
|
|
@lisp
|
|
@cartouche
|
|
eg$ @b{cp /usr/cygnus/man/man1/* /usr/catman/u@t{_}man/man1}
|

@unnumberedsec Removing the Developer's Kit
|
|
To remove this release of the Developer's Kit from your system
|
|
(if, eventually, you no longer want it):
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item
|
|
remove the man pages for this release from your system's
|
|
@file{/usr/catman/u_man/man1} directory, if you had chosen to install
|
|
them there. For example, in a Bourne-compatible shell,
|
|
@lisp
|
|
@cartouche
|
|
eg$ @b{cd /usr/cygnus/man/man1}
|
|
eg$ @b{for m in *; do}
|
|
eg> @b{rm /usr/catman/u@t{_}man/man1/$m}
|
|
eg> @b{done}
|
|
@end cartouche
|
|
@end lisp
|
|
@item
|
|
delete the directory @file{/usr/cygnus} and all its contents.

@unnumberedsec Where to report bugs
|
|
If you find a bug in this release, please report it to Cygnus Support.
|
|
The easiest way to report a bug is via Internet electronic mail to
|
|
@samp{bugs@@cygnus.com}; for other contact methods,
|
|
@pxref{Cygnus-Support,,Cygnus Support}. @strong{Do not report these bugs
|
|
directly to the GNU project} at the Free Software Foundation! Cygnus is
|
|
distributing an early release of advanced versions of the GNU compiler
|
|
and development tools, and we therefore have full responsibility for
|
|
supporting this release. @strong{The FSF will not respond to bugreports
|
|
on this software} until release 2.0 of the compilers. You, the FSF, and
|
|
Cygnus will all be best served if you send bugreports directly to Cygnus
|
|
Support.

@unnumberedsec Cygnus and FSF Releases
|
|
|
|
The tools in this Developer's Kit are originally from the Free Software
|
|
Foundation, and versions of all these tools can be obtained from the FSF
|
|
as well as from Cygnus. Release m88k--11--91 contains the most current
|
|
versions; similar versions of the compilers, in particular, will
|
|
eventually be available from the FSF as version 2.00. In general,
|
|
Cygnus Releases add to FSF software as follows:
|
|
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item
|
|
Commercial support is available. Cygnus adds value to FSF releases in
|
|
large measure by offering outstanding support services.
|
|
@item
|
|
Bug fixes. Cygnus performs necessary repairs to bugs discovered
|
|
during testing, and also tracks and includes bug fixes developed for
|
|
other Cygnus customers or distributed over the Internet.
|
|
@item
|
|
Documentation. Cygnus has revised and added to available FSF
|
|
documentation to give you better descriptions of all the software tools.
|
|
@item
|
|
Coordination. The tools in your Developer's Kit are certified to work
|
|
together; you need not worry about one tool being ahead of another.

@unnumberedsec Cygnus Support
|
|
|
|
Cygnus Support was founded in 1989 to provide commercial support for
|
|
free software. Cygnus supplies products and services that benefit
|
|
advanced development groups by allowing them to @emph{use}
|
|
state-of-the-art tools instead of @emph{maintaining} them. With Cygnus
|
|
Support, sites that once were forced to do their own tool support can
|
|
recover that valuable staff time. Former users of proprietary software
|
|
now may choose supported free software, combining the advantages of both
|
|
worlds.
|
|
|
|
Free software is faster, more powerful, and more portable than its
|
|
proprietary counterparts. It evolves faster because users who want to
|
|
make improvements are free to do so. Cygnus tracks these
|
|
improvements and integrates them into tested, stable versions ready
|
|
for commercial use, then backs this software with comprehensive
|
|
support.
|
|
|
|
With Cygnus Support as your partner, you will have the software and
|
|
the support you need to meet your business objectives better. Cygnus
|
|
is intimately familiar with this software from extensive experience
|
|
using, debugging, and implementing it. You get direct access to the
|
|
most qualified support people: the authors of that software.
|
|
|
|
We provide ``vintage'' releases---stable versions which have been
|
|
though extensive use and testing---or up-to-the minute sources, for
|
|
those who need the very latest version. Vintage releases undergo at
|
|
least nine months of intensive use before certification as vintage.
|
|
|
|
Because all our improvements are also free software, you can
|
|
distribute them widely within your organization, or to your customers,
|
|
without extra cost.
