55 williamc 1.9 Type <em>cvs login</em><br>
56 williamc 1.1 At the prompt enter the password <b>98passwd</b>
57 williamc 1.9 <p>
58 williamc 1.1 <li><input type="checkbox">
59 williamc 1.10 Check out the version of scram you require with the following command.
60 williamc 1.9 <p>
61     <em>cvs co -d <b>version</b> -r <b>version</b> SCRAM</em>
62     <p>
63     Where version is one of:
64 williamc 1.1 <ol>
65 williamc 1.19 <li>V0_18_1
66 williamc 1.20 <li>V0_18_2
67 williamc 1.1 </ol>
68 williamc 1.9 Make sure you replace <b>version</b> twice in the above command!
69 williamc 1.16 <br> Note: Once a version of scram has been installed, installation of any
70     other version becomes trivial with the <b>scram version <em>Version</em></b>
71     command
72 williamc 1.9 <p>
73 williamc 1.1 <li><input type="checkbox">
74 williamc 1.9 Goto the Installation directory of the version you have just checked out<p>
75     e.g<br><em>cd <b>version</b>/Installation</em>
76     <p>
77 williamc 1.1 <li><input type="checkbox">
78 williamc 1.9 Run the installation script (install_scram).<br>
79     e.g.<br>
80     <em>./install_scram</em><p>
81     This will create a file wrapper script called "scram" in your top level
82 williamc 1.16 directory. <br>
83     Note that by default this assumes perl is in /usr/local/bin/perl5
84     (see <a href=perlhelp.html>PERL help</a>)<br>
85     If it is located elsewhere you can use the -perl option (from V0_15_0): <br>
86     e.g <br>
87     <em>perl install_scram -perl /usr/bin/perl</em>
88 williamc 1.9 <p>
89     <em>Experienced Users Note:
90     The install_scram script will make the current version the default.</em>
91 williamc 1.2 <p>
92     <li><input type="checkbox">
93 williamc 1.9 change back to your top level directory<br>
94     e.g.<br><em>cd ../..</em>
95     <p>
96     You will see the new file in this directory. Ensure that your system can
97     see it too by either:
98     <ul>
99     <li>Creating a link from an area in your path to the scram file in this
100     directory
101     <li>Extending your PATH environment variable to include your top level directory
102     <li>Creating an alias to point to the scram file in this directory
103     </ul>
104     <br>
105 williamc 1.1 <li><input type="checkbox">
106     If you wish to use SCRAM directly through web page links you will
107     now need to configure your browser to use scram.
