The CD that comes with this book should be readable on a
Mac, Solaris, Windows 95, and Windows NT 4.0. Just put
the CD in the drive, and mount it using whatever method you
normally use on your platform, probably filemanager in
Solaris, and just stick it in the drive if you’re using a Mac and
Windows. There’s no fancy installer. You can browse the
directories as you would a hard drive.
All CD-ROM files are read-only. Therefore, if you open a file
from the CD-ROM and make any changes to it, you’ll need to
save it to your hard drive. Also, If you copy a file from the
CD-ROM to your hard drive, the file retains its read-only
attribute. To change this attribute after copying a file, rightclick
the file name or icon and select Properties from the
shortcut menu. In the Properties dialog box, click the General
tab and remove the checkmark from the Read-only checkbox.
There are seven main directories:
1. Browsers
2. Parsers
3. Specifications
4. Examples
5. Source Code
6. Utilities
7. PDFs
