Installation guide

• Cardﬁler

The Cardﬁler program for DIGITAL UNIX workstations has a user

interface based on Motif, and is similar to the one on ULTRIX

workstations. For information about using the Cardﬁler program, see

dxcardfiler

(1X) or start the Cardﬁler program and read its online

help information.

• CDA Viewer

The CDA Viewer program on DIGITAL UNIX workstations has a user

interface based on Motif, and is similar to the one on ULTRIX

workstations. For information about using the CDA Viewer, see

dxvdoc

(1X). You can also start the CDA Viewer and read its online help

information.

• DECterm

The DECterm terminal emulator program for DIGITAL UNIX

workstations has a user interface based on Motif, and is similar to the

one on ULTRIX workstations. For information about using DECterm,

see dxterm

(1X) or start a DECterm window and read the online help

information.

• Editors and other pattern-scanning tools

The ed, ex, sed, vi, and GNU Emacs editors are the same as the

editors of the same names on the ULTRIX system. For information on

using these editors, see ed

(1), ex(1), sed(1), and vi(1). The GNU Emacs

editor features an operational xmenu interface, and is described in the

GNU Emacs Manual. If the Emacs editor is installed on your system,

this manual is contained in the following PostScript ﬁle:

/usr/lib/emacs/doc/emacs.ps

The DIGITAL UNIX distribution media also includes the Emacs source

code as an optional item.

The awk program is essentially the same as the ULTRIX awk program.

For information on awk, see awk

(1). The sed editor and the awk

program are also discussed in Programming Support Tools. The gawk

program is essentially the same as the ULTRIX nawk program. For

information on gawk, see gawk

(1). The DECwindows Notepad program,

which is also an editor, is described later in this list.

• Examples

The DIGITAL UNIX system includes a full suite of demos and sample

programs in the /usr/examples/motif library, including the xcd and

periodic programs. The xcd program allows you to play music

compact discs in a RRD42 CD−ROM drive attached to your system. The

periodic program displays a periodic chart of Motif widgets.
