NAME

andrew - start Xibm, cwm, console, and typescript

SYNOPSIS

andrew [server] [display ...]

DESCRIPTION

This is a shell script to be used in conjunction with “The IBM Andrew Toolkit User’s Guide” by anyone who wants to learn how the Andrew File System works. 

To use it, set the following environment variables:

DISPLAY:0
CLASSPATH/usr/andrew/dlib/be2
BE2WMx11

and copy two files, preferences and .Xdefaults, from /usr/guest/guest/andrew to your home directory. 

Specifically, andrew starts up the Xibm server, cwm window manager, and two andrew applications, console and typescript, on the specified server and display. 

Server is the id to uniquely identify a particular server.  It consists of a colon followed by one digit in the range of 0-7; for example, :0.  If no server is specified, 0 is used. 

The following adapters and displays are recognized:

8514 The IBM 8514 PS/2 Color Graphics Display Adapter 8514/A

vga The IBM Video Graphics Array (VGA) Displays

mpel The IBM 5081 Display with MegaPel adapter-displays

ega The IBM 5154 Enhanced Color Display with adapter

apa16 The IBM 6155 Extended Monochrome Graphics Display

aed The IBM Academic Information Systems experimental display

If no display is specified, andrew starts on the first available display chosen from the list above, searching from top to bottom. 

EXAMPLES

andrew
andrew vga 8514
andrew mpel
andrew :0 vga 8514

VARIABLES

If no server number is supplied on the command line, andrew looks for the environment variable DISPLAY and, if it is defined, uses it for server.  If a server number is given on the command line, it overrides the value defined in the DISPLAY variable in the shell environment. 

FILES

/usr/guest/guest/andrew/andrew
/usr/guest/guest/andrew/preferences
