For fastest performance, and to enable the coal washability hotlink tool, it is suggested that the user copy the directory views to a local hard drive in a directory named fsucoal. |
There are two versions of the ArcView project on this disk. Both are found in the directory views.
fsu_win.apr can be accessed on Windows 95/98/NT/2000 platforms, when ArcView is installed, with no modifcations necessary.
|
Most users using Windows operating systems will prefer to access fsu_win.apr to view the ArcView project. |
fsucoal.apr can be accessed on any operating system which supports ArcView, when ArcView is installed, after modifications to systems files are accomplished.
To access fsucoal.apr it is necessary to define the environmental variable FSUCOAL which is intended to direct paths to the root of this disk.
On Windows 95/98 platforms it is necessary to define FSUCOAL in the autoexec.bat file as follows:
set FSUCOAL=<CD-ROM drive letter> for example if the CD-ROM is drive f, set FSUCOAL=f:
You must restart your computer for this change to take effect.
On Windows NT/2000 platforms users can define FSUCOAL by mouse clicking to START, SETTINGS, CONTROL PANEL, SYSTEM, and then ENVIRONMENT and defining FSUCOAL as the variable, and the CD-ROM drive letter followed by a colon as the value.
| This Arcview project was developed in Arcview 3.0.
When opened in Arcview 3.1 or ArcView 3.2 there may be a message asking whether to upgrade
to v 3.1 or v3.2 tools. It is suggested that the user respond no. There
will still be tools and buttons not intended in the original project, but
they have no impact on the functionality of the project.
The interface has been simplified to make viewing easier. Users wishing more functionality can create a new project with the shapefiles provided. |

On a Macintosh platform modify the "startup" file in the Preferences folder of the System folder with:
System.SetEnvVar ("FSUCOAL", "OF01104")
An example "startup" file, startup,
can be found in the directory views/misc,
which can be dragged into the system icon.
(If the directory views is copied to a local hard
drive the context would be: System.SetEnvVar("FSUCOAL","x"), where
x is the name of the folder where the directory views has been copied.)
On a UNIX platform either modify the user's .cshrc file or use a setenv statement at the command prompt.
An example .cshrc which includes environmental variables for all of the CD-ROM publications of the U.S. Geological Survey World Energy Project is included in the directory views/misc.
Or, at the command prompt the statement: setenv FSUCOAL /cdrom/of01104
will define the environmental variable.
