WELCOME TO TURBO C 2.01
-----------------------
This README file contains important, last minute information
about Turbo C 2.01. The HELPME!.DOC file on the COMPILER/UTILITIES
disk also answers many common Technical Support questions.

1. HOW TO GET HELP
-------------------
If you have any problems, please read this file, the
HELPME!.DOC file, and the Turbo C manuals first. If you still
have a question and need assistance, help is available from
the following sources:
1. Type GO BOR on the CompuServe bulletin board system for
instant access to the Borland forums with their libraries of
technical information and answers to common questions.
If you are not a member of CompuServe, see the enclosed special
offer, and write for full details on how to receive a free
IntroPak containing a $15 credit toward your first month's on-
line charges.
2. Check with your local software dealer or users' group.
3. Write to us at the following address:
Borland International
Turbo C Technical Support
1800 Green Hills Road
P.O. Box 660001
Scotts Valley, CA 95066-0001
Please remember to include your serial number or we will be
unable to process your letter.
4. If you have an urgent problem that cannot wait and you have sent
in the license agreement from the front of your manual, you may
call the Borland Technical Support Department at (408) 438-5300.
Please have the following information ready before calling:
a. Product name and serial number on your original distribution
disk. Please have your serial number ready or we will be
unable to process your call.
b. Product version number. The version number for Turbo C is
displayed when you first load the program and before you
press any keys.
c. Computer brand, model, and the brands and model numbers of
any additional hardware.
d. Operating system and version number. (The version number can
be determined by typing VER at the MSDOS prompt.)
e. Contents of your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
f. Contents of your CONFIG.SYS file.
2. INSTALLATION
----------------
The INSTALL/HELP/BGI disk contains a program called
INSTALL.EXE that will assist you with the installation of
Turbo C 2.01. There are three options for installation:
1. Hard Disk - This option allows you to pick the subdirectories
where the files will be loaded. It will create a TURBOC.CFG
file based on those directories.
2. Update from TC 1.5 - This allows for an easy update from version
1.5. After the files are copied, all the installed options
from your current TC.EXE will be transferred to the new one.
This is especially useful if you have modified the colors or
editor keys.
3. Floppy Disk - This option will build either a command line or
Integrated Development Environment version for a two drive
system. Be sure to have three formatted disks ready before
you start.
To start the installation, change your current drive to the one
that has the install program on it and type INSTALL. You will
be given instructions in a box at the bottom of the screen for
each prompt. For example, if you will be installing from drive
A:, type:
A:
INSTALL
You should read the rest of this README file to get further
information about this release before you do the installation.
3. IMPORTANT NOTES
-------------------
o The file HELPME!.DOC contains discussions of common questions
and answers concerning Turbo C 2.01. You should consult it for
answers to problems that aren't covered in this file or in
the manuals.
o If you are running INSTALL or TCINST on a laptop or any other
system that uses an LCD or composite display, you should set
your system to black and white mode before running INSTALL
or TCINST. You can do this from DOS with the following command
line:
mode bw80
or, you can force INSTALL or TCINST to come up in black and
white mode by using the /b switch:
tcinst /b
o /P PARAMETER FOR TC.EXE. A new command-line switch controls
palette swapping on EGA video adapters. Using this switch
tc /p hello
is recommended only when the user program modifies the EGA
palette registers. When /P is specified, the EGA palette will be
restored each time the screen is swapped. In general, you don't
need to use this switch unless your program modifies the EGA
palette registers, or unless your program uses BGI to change
the palette.
o A program that takes over interrupt 9 cannot be debugged
with the integrated debugger. Use the standalone Turbo Debugger
instead.
o exec() WITH NOVELL NETWORK. Versions of the Novell network
system software earlier than 2.01-2 do not support a DOS
call used by exec(), spawn(), and system(). If you are using
the Integrated Development Environment to run a program that
uses any of these functions and you have early Novell system
software, run the program from DOS. To do this from the
Integrated Development Environment you can use Alt-F/O.
o If you used the INSTALL program to upgrade from version 1.5,
or if you used CINSTXFR to transfer options from an
installation of version 1.5, check the setting of the
standard stack frame option in the Integrated Development
Environment (Alt-O/C/C/S). If you are going to use the
integrated debugger this option should be turned ON.
o If you are having problems with the call stack or qualified
names, make sure you have compiled with the standard stack
frame option turned on.
o The ANSI draft has changed the syntax of labels. A label now
must always be followed by a statement. This means that code
like this is no longer accepted:
{
.
.
.
jump_label:
}
If you have code like this, change it to look like this:
{
.
.
.
jump_label:
; /* need a statement here! */
}
o TCC has a switch to specify which assembler to look for. By
default, it will look for TASM.EXE. If you want to use a
different assembler, use -E<filename>, as described in the
Reference Guide.
o When using THELP on an AT&T 6300, be sure to use the /L25
command-line option, as described in the file THELP.DOC.
o Because of the limited memory available in the Tiny model,
it no longer supports graphics functions.
o The Version 1.5 graphics drivers (*.BGI) are not compatible
with the Version 2.01 graphics library. Use the |
