How To EDOC books located on a network
This explains how to install just the EDOC books in a central
network location and to allow for network books to be accessed
by local browser.
1. Install the books on a network.
2. Install the browsers-only locally.
3. Edit each local DYNATEXT.INI file to include the following
lines.
(In this example, each collection is on a separate line for
readability; they do not have to be. Attached is an example
INI file that we use here at PSC.
See the comments in the example INI for more info.)
COLLECTION=X:\path\to\getstart=PROGRESS Getting Started
COLLECTION=X:\path\to\devtools=PROGRESS Development Tools
COLLECTION=X:\path\to\reptools=PROGRESS Reporting Tools
COLLECTION=X:\path\to\4gl=PROGRESS 4GL
COLLECTION=X:\path\to\sysadmn=PROGRESS System Administration
COLLECTION=X:\path\to\database=PROGRESS Database\DataServers
COLLECTION=X:\path\to\sqloa=PROGRESS SQL\Open Access
COLLECTION=X:\path\to\deploy=PROGRESS Deployment

; NOTE: You can have multiple COLLECTION lines. For example:
;
; COLLECTION=C:\dtext31\EBTDOCS\SAMPDOC=Sample Books
; COLLECTION=D:\mycoll=A Few of My Favorite Things
; COLLECTION=E:\EBOOKS\REFMANS=System Reference Manuals
;
; You can also have multiple SYSCONFIG lines.

; *-- Setting Window Positions --------------------------------------*
;
; To customize the initial size and position of DynaText windows,
; you can specify the initial geometry on a window-type basis.
; For each type of window, specify xleft, ytop, width, height, and
; optional "special" flag
;
; Syntax: window_name=x y w h [s]
;
; window_name = For Book windows, it's the stylesheet name without
; file extension, but with horizontal or vertical selector (if
; there's a TOC):
; fulltext_v = for fulltext window with vertical splitbar
; (TOC on left or right)
; fulltext_h = for fulltext window with horizontal splitbar
; (TOC on top or bottom)
; fulltext= for a fulltext window without a TOC (ie, no splitbar)
; popup= for a popup revelatory without a TOC, etc.
;
; Other window names:
; collectionWin = the collection window
; graphic = graphic windows (rasters and vectors)
; note = the Annotation Note window
; log = the Message Log window
;
; x = left edge of window in MDI desktop
; -1 = default
; y = top edge position of window in MDI desktop
; -1 = default
; w = width of window in MDI desktop
; -1 = default width
; -2 = fill window to right edge of MDI desktop
; h = height of window in MDI desktop
; -1 = default width
; -2 = fill window to bottom edge of MDI desktop
; s = special characteristic; This item (the 5th integer) is optional
!
; 0 = default (show normal)
; 1 = maximize window in MDI desktop
; 2 = minimize (iconify) window in MDI desktop
;
; NOTES: If s = 1 or 2, the window will first be sized according to
; the "x y w h" integers specifed _and then_ the window is
; maximized or iconfied, so when the user restores the window, i
t will
; appear in the specified geometry and placement.
