PSILink compressed file use & password -------------------------------------Using the PSILINK.ZIP file -------------------------The complete EXPLORER hypertext system includes a copy of PSILINK.ZIP, compressed binary file containing Version 3.11 of the PSILink Internet communications interface shareware program. This version was current at writing, August, 1992. If you don't have the PSILINK.ZIP file, check with the source from which you obtained this part of the system. He/she/they should be able to help you locate or obtain a copy. You can also check for more current versions on PSI's computer. Use anonymous ftp to ftp.psi.com, and check for PSILINK.ZIP and .DOC files in the /psilink directory. You should be able to tell quite easily, from the date of the .ZIP file, or from the .DOC files. The complete PSILink working system takes up 1-1/2 meg or more space on a hard disk. To install the PSILink program: ------------------------------** Create a hard disk subdirectory named psilink ** Change to that new subdirectory ** Unzip (decompress) the PSILINK.ZIP file into that directory. Make sure the PKUNZIP utility is on your command path, or in the new directory. Enter command as follows: pkunzip [d:\path\]psilink where d:\path\ is drive and path where PSILINK.ZIP is located. For example, "pkunzip a:\psilink" if the .ZIP file is in the root directory of a floppy in drive A:, "pkunzip psilink" if the .ZIP file is in the new directory NOTE: also prefix "pkunzip" with the drive letter, if IT is on the floppy. For example, if both pkunzip and psilink.zip are on drive b:, enter command as: b:pkunzip b:psilink
** Change to the new directory and run the INSTALL program. This will configure PSILink, creating needed subdirectories and working files. ** Examine the READ.ME file for current system information. ** Run the program by entering "psilink" - the F1 key will get you help at most places.
