                MKS RCS CLI Release 6.2d
                Read This First
                August 10, 1994


MKS RCS is distributed on a number of diskettes.  The readme.1st
file and a number of installation and configuration files are
kept on the first diskette of the set, which can be used at a
later date to reconfigure MKS RCS.

In addition, a number of files are kept in the \bin and \etc
directories on several diskettes, many of which are compressed.
When you install MKS RCS, the install program decompresses the
files as it copies them to your hard drive.  If you need to
manually copy files from the distribution disks, they must be
decompressed before they are used, using the uncompre.exe utility
in the \bin directory on the first diskette.


INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To install MKS RCS and/or MKS Make, put the first diskette in the floppy
drive and type

   a:\install

If your floppy drive has a specification other than "a:", substitute
the appropriate letter in this command.

The install program will then present you with a set of install options.


There is also a configuration program located on the first diskette.
This program will set your RCS logname and will also customize Make for
use with a compiler of your choice.

To configure MKS RCS and/or MKS Make, put the first diskette in the floppy
drive and type

   a:\config

If your floppy drive has a specification other than "a:", substitute
the appropriate letter in this command.


If you select to install the on-line documentation, special information on
this release of MKS RCS for DOS is included online as four separate
files:

     Release Notes                         etc/cat7/rcsnotes.7d
     Manual Errata                         etc/cat7/rcserrat.7
     Frequently Asked Questions            etc/cat7/rcsfaq.7d
     Using MKS RCS Projects White Paper    etc/cat7/pjnotes.7

These files are set up so that they may be read using the RCS man
command, as follows:

     man rcsnotes <ENTER>

We recommend you read each of these files immediately after the installation
of MKS RCS.  If you choose not to install the on-line documentation, these
files are available in the root directory of the first install diskette.
