How to install 'Word Hound' --------------------------- Word Hound is supplied in 5 parts (excluding this file) : WordHound1 - Spark archive containing the main parts of the application. WordHound2 - Data file. Containing Roget's 1901 thesaurus. WordHound3 - Data file. Containing 1st part of dictionary. WordHound4 - Data file. Containing 2nd part of dictionary. WordHound5 - Data file. Containing 3rd part of dictionary. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- To be able to install the full version you will need just under 4Meg for the application, and about 2Meg more to actually perform the installation. If you don't have this much free space see the end of this file. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- To install Word Hound follow these steps : ======================================== 1) Using Spark (or ArcFS, etc) open the 'WordHound1' archive and copy the files to your hard disc. 2) Open the '!WordHound' application directory that now resides on your hard disc. 3) Copy the remaining (data) files so that they are inside the application directory. 4) Rename 'WordHound2' to 'ROGET-D'. 5) Make sure 'WordHound3', 'WordHound4' and 'WordHound5' are correctly named. Also check you now have at least 2Meg free on your hard disc. 6) Double click on the '!Install' obey file that is inside the application directory. Make sure you run the '!Install' obey file, and not the Install BASIC program. 7) If you don't get any errors from step 6, and you have now a file in the application directory which is called 'dict-d' and is 1956951 bytes long, you can delete the following files from within the application directory : 'WordHound3', 'WordHound4', 'WordHound5', '!Install' and 'Install'. Word Hound is now ready to run... If you don't have 6Meg hard disc space ====================================== If you don't have enough hard disc space to install this application, there are two things you can do : 1) Only install the thesaurus part. This requires only about 1.6Meg of disc space : Follow steps 1 and 2 above. Now delete the following : 'dict-q', 'dict-i', '!Install', 'Install'. Copy 'WordHound2' to the application directory. Rename 'WordHound2' to 'ROGET-D'. Word Hound will now work fine, but you will just be unable to get dictionary definitions. 2) If you have 4Meg free, but just not 6Meg, you can manually install the dictionary data file. All that '!Install' (and 'Install') do is to take 'WordHound3', 'WordHound4' and 'WordHound5' and join them (end to end) to make 'dict-d'.
