Coronado Enterprises C++ TUTOR (ver 2.20)
Jan 20, 1992
Getting Started with the C++ tutorial
The first thing you should do is to backup the distribution diskettes and store the distribution diskettes away in a safe place.
Use only the copy for all operations.
Getting started with the TEXT diskette
Before you can begin studying C++, you must print out a copy of the tutorial text. The file named PRINTEXT.BAT is designed to help you do this. Simply type the name PRINTEXT at the DOS prompt and all of the tutorial text will be printed for you. This batch file uses the executable file named PRNTTEXT.EXE to print the files. This executable file prints the files with 8 spaces at the beginning of each line for neat formatting. It will print about 130 pages.
Getting started with the SOURCE diskette
If you desire, a printout of all example C++ files can be made using the PRINTALL.BAT file included. Simply type PRINTALL at the command prompt with the printer on and lots of paper in place. It will print about 170 pages. You may want to edit a copy of the PRINTALL.BAT file to only print part of the files initially, and print the remainder as you come to them in the lessons.
PRINTALL.BAT uses the file LIST.EXE to actually do the printing.
This is a program written in Pascal and compiled with TURBO Pascal, because Borland International does not require a licensing fee for distributing executable files. It is not really necessary to print out the C++ example files, but sometimes a hardcopy is a real convenience.
