***************** * TiEmu * * Win32 version * ***************** REQUIREMENTS ------------ - a PC with a 450MHz Pentium-class processor and 32MB of RAM - a Windows computer: Windows 95/98/Me or Windows NT4/2000/XP (better) - the GTK+ 2.6 libraries Location: - note: SilverLink is not supported yet, parts between [] are not applicable ! [the SilverLink driver v3.x if you have a SilverLink cable Location: http://www.ticalc.org/pub/win/link/tiglusbinf3.zip] Note: if you are using GiMP, you don't need to get this GTK+ package, they are compatible. INSTALLATION ------------ Run the InnoSetup installer... 1°) You need some extra libraries (GTK+ 2.6). The GTK+ package includes the Wimp (Windows IMPersonator) theme engine which gives Windows look & feel (includes XP theming). Is also included the GTK theme selector. You may need to use it on non-NT systems if you get a lot of warnings about a font. Simply disable the WiMP theme for another one. If anyone is getting one of these: - ** WARNING **: Couldn't load font "MS Sans Serif 8" falling back to "Sans 8" - ** ERROR **: file shape.c line 75: assertion failed: (glyphs->num_glyphs > 0) or any other warning or error message regarding fonts/glyphs, the fix is to open your C:\Program Files\Shared Files\Gtk\2.0\etc\gtk-2.0\gtkrc and to add this: style "user-font" { font_name="Arial" } widget_class "*" style "user-font" This forces GTK+ to use a compatible font (Arial) and reportedly fixes both the aforementioned problems, and probably others too. [2°) If you have a SilverLink cable (TI-GRAPH LINK USB), you will need to retrieve the Win32 driver on the Linux Programmer Group at http://lpg.ticalc.org/prj_usb. Simply plug your link cable: Windows should detect a new device. Next, follow the installation instructions. You can install driver at any time (that is to say before or after TiLP installation). Given that the LPG SilverLink driver has a Release date more recent than the Texas Instruments OEM driver, this driver will be used prior to the TI one.] 3°) This setup will install the PortTalk driver (Windows NT4/2000/XP machines). This step may require an administrator account (at least for NT4). You will need to REBOOT your machine after installation (if you plan to use a parallel or serial link cable).
