ReadAIF Installation

1. Create a Directory

Create a directory where you want to put the ReadAIF
files. The space required is only a few hundred KB.
For purposes of this manual, let's day that we create
the directory /cad/readaif.

2. Untar the files into the directory you just created.

The readaif release comes as a tar.Z file. Use the uncompress
command to get the tar file and then use the tar command
to unpack the files i.e.

[/cad/readaif]$ uncompress readaifv101.tar.Z

then

[/cad/readaif]$ tar xvf readaifv101.tar


3. Edit your .cdsinit file

Open your .cdsinit file (it can be located in various places
and the location determines whether it will control just your
local copy of Virtuoso or the entire dept's configurations...)

Append the following two lines to the end of the .cdsinit file:

ACS_READAIF_DIR = "/cad/readaif"
(load (strcat ACS_READAIF_DIR "/raifinit.eil"))

The first line defines the location of where you have installed
the readaif files. The second line instructs Virtuoso to load the 
readaif files.

 
The next time you start Virtuoso you should see the ReadAIF pulldown.
