How to: Install MultiView Mascot

Note: [FILENAME] is the filename of the archive that you downloaded.

1. When you have downloaded the MultiView Mascot UNIX tar file from the MultiView Web site, copy it to the /usr directory on your UNIX host using ftp.
   Note: If you do not have an ftp client, you can obtain one by downloading MultiView 2000 or MultiView DeskTop.

2. Login as super-user (ie. root), and move to the directory where you want to install your MultiView software. For example, to install in “/usr” type:   cd /usr

3. If the downloadable is compressed (compressed files have a '.Z' file extension), it will need to be uncompressed with the following command:   ncompress [FILENAME]
4. Extract the installation files using the following command (if the file was compressed, you will need to ommit the '.Z' file extension):   tar xvf [FILENAME]

5. Read or print the readme document with one of the following commands:

   pg mvw/readme
   lp mvw/readme
6. To install your MultiView software:
   
   1. Type the command: mvw/install
   2. The system then displays: Number, or d for a demo copy
   3. Type a 'd' to install your demonstration copy
7. The installation archive can now be removed with the following command (if the file was compressed, you will need to ommit the '.Z' file extension):   rm [FILENAME]
