Adding Panther Documents
`Ensure that the grafcap file (distributed in the config directory) is located in one of the directories pointed to by SMPATH.
`Ensure that the files gdsp and swsdrvr (distributed in the util directory) can be found along the search PATH for executables (Prolifics must be able to execute these programs).
Prolifics’s online help and manuals are built and displayed with DynaText by Inso Corporation. To verify that you can access the online documents, run dtext (in the util directory). You should see a dialog containing a list of documents available through DynaText. If you have problems accessing the documents:
`Ensure that the Prolifics util directory is included in the PATH variable.
`Ensure that the .ebtrc can be accessed. Do this by either placing a copy of it in your home directory (and each user’s home directory) or by having an EBTRC variable specification which points to a copy (in the config directory).
`Ensure that the contents of the .ebtrc file are correct. Since .ebtrc relies on the SMBASE variable, that must be set and exported.
If DynaText was previously installed, you can use your existing DynaText configuration file (.ebtrc) to include the Panther manuals with your existing list of documents.
To include the Panther manuals in an existing DynaText collection:
Add the following to the COLLECTION line:
In the .ebtrc file: $SMBASE/docs = Panther
