This document accompanies the FTP release of TIFFany II release 2.30. It contains FTP download instructions and installation instructions. Please read this document in its entirety before using TIFFany, even if you're the kind of person who doesn't believe in instructions. You'll thank us later. TIFFany II release 2.30 FTP instructions This discussion assumes you are already familiar with general FTP procedures. If you have any trouble downloading or installing the application, please contact AFS by email at TIFFany@afs.com, by phone at +1-215-653-0911, or by fax at +1-215-653-0711. TIFFany II 2.30 is stored on ftp.cs.orst.edu in the /software/NeXT/demos/graphics directory. To provide consistency with disk-based installations, the FTP files are simply tarred versions of the Installer.app packages supplied on physical media. The following files are available: TIFFany2.README - This document. Describes what to download and how to install it. TIFFany2.NI.pkg.tar - The complete TIFFany application, with binaries for NeXT and Intel hardware architectures. (4.2MB) TIFFany2.NIHS.pkg.tar - The complete TIFFany application, with binaries for all four NEXTSTEP hardware architectures. (6.8MB) TIFFany2-Help.pkg.tar - The on-line help system. (Optional, 13MB) Installing TIFFany II 2.30 from FTP tar files After downloading all of the packages you need to a temporary directory like /tmp, untar them with the Workspace File->Decompress option. This action will turn them into Installer.app packages. The rest of this document describes the order in which the pieces should be installed, plus preferred installation locations. TIFFany2.NI.pkg or TIFFany2.NIHS.pkg - This package must be installed in a 'visible' applications location, like /LocalApps or ~/Apps. If you are already using a previous release of TIFFany, be sure you have a good backup (or access to the original disks) before installing this package over the old version. If you don't need all of the architectures in whichever package you downloaded, you can tell Installer to extract only those you need. TIFFany2-Help.pkg.tar - The Help package knows how to tuck itself inside the application, so you must specify the exact same path up to but NOT including TIFFany2.app itself. If you are installing the Help package at a later date than the main package, be sure you are logged in as the same user. Otherwise you will not have sufficient permissions to install Help. This completes the basic installation process. If you will be registering a site license, launch the application and wait for the registration panel, because only the application owner can enter license information. If you don't have a license key, you can ignore this panel and run in demo mode, which will disable saving and printing (among other things). Otherwise, enter your name and license key in the fields on the license panel. If the key is valid, the panel will provide details of the license entitlements. The app is ready to run!
