Manuals

GAS comes with 2 manuals. These are in Postscript format (retrieve and save them as Ascii files) and should be printed on a Postscript compatible laserprinter:

Whichever computer system you are using, you will need to download both of these manuals. Full instructions for installing and using the program and example files are given at the back of the General User Guide.

PC DOS

For PC based systems, you require the file: Once you have retrieved this file (as a binary image), typing `gas20dos' will automatically unpack both the GAS program and the example files. The package includes two auxillary files, 32RTM.EXE and DPMI32VM.OVL which you must install in the DOS path (the Windows directory must also be in the DOS path).

Unix Systems

You should load (as a binary image) the appropriate version of GAS for your system from the list below:

You will also require the example file package:

Once you have retrieved the appropriate files you can unpack them using the command:

zcat bundle.tar.Z | tar -xvf -

where bundle is the first part of the file name.

VMS Systems

You should load (as a binary image) the appropriate version of GAS for your system from the list below: The VMS backup format may become corrupted during remote transfers and as a result there is not a specific example file package for VMS. Instead please load either the Unix or DOS example packages, the contents of which are identical.
