User`s guide

UNIX
Although it is not mandatory, it is recommended that root user perform the Remote GigaView
installation. If root user is unavailable, write permissions to the installation directory are needed.
A symbolic link is created by the root user in the /bin directory in order to provide universal
access to the program.
To install Remote GigaView:
1. Mount the CDROM using the applicable method for your workstation.
2. Issue the following command for SUN/Solaris:
/<cdrom_loadpoint>/setup.sun
or for HP-UX 10.2 issue,
/<cdrom_loadpoint>/setup.hp
or for HP-UX 11i issue,
/<cdrom_loadpoint>/setup.hpi
or for Linux 7.2 or above
/<cdrom_loadpoint>/setup.lnx
replacing <cdrom_loadpoint> with the applicable path for your workstation.
3. Follow the prompts to install the required files.
If you did not install the files as root user, a symbolic link to the /bin directory by someone with
root access should be entered as directed by the installation program.
4. CShell users should now issue the rehash command in order to refresh the path.
5. To install the license codes, issue the command:
visi -license
and enter supplied license codes.
6. To configure the macro language interface, issue the command:
visi -macrocfg
7. The installation is now complete. Launch the program by issuing the command:
visi
