GETTING STARTED
3.1 RUNNING PCX5
The DOS command line syntax for executing PCX5 is:
PCX5 [-cXXX.cfg] [-ega] [-mc<n1>] [-me<n2>]
The optional parameters (shown in brackets) denote:
-cXXX.cfg
configuration file to be loaded. “XXX” is any pre-defined
configuration file (see Section 9.6). If no configuration file
is specified, “PCX5.CFG” is used (either from the current
directory, if available, or from the program directory).
-ega
forces display into EGA mode (see Section 2.3).
-mc<n1>
amount of conventional memory to allocate for plotting.
“<N1>” is the amount in Kbytes. If unspecified, the program
will use what it needs from available memory.
-me<n2>
amount of expanded memory to allocate for plotting. “<N2>”
is the amount in 16K-bytes. If unspecified, the program will
use what it needs from available memory.
After invoking PCX5, the main program screen will appear as illustrated
below:
