2.1.1 OS/2

Basically there are two ways to install Plucker on OS/2:

• The Expert: You may obtain all packages you need to run Plucker separately and set them up by hand. This would be the preferred way if you have already several packages installed on your system (unless you work a lot with Unix-style tools on OS/2 this is not very likely the case) and if you have some experiences setting up such stuff.

• The Easy way: Just get the WarpIn-Installation packages and run install. This is the preferred way for new and/or inexperienced users and if you do not have the main parts to run Plucker installed on your system. Unless specific circumstances or environments we encourage you to use this way! The OS/2-installer will do no harm to your system and it will make it quite easy to de-install Plucker.

In any way you will get all files needed on our OS/2 page at

http://www.stellarcom.org/plucker/os2_bins/index.html.

On this page you will find all tools necessary to set up Plucker either way you choose.

NOTE: You need to install Plucker on a HPFS-partition. It will not work on FAT file systems.

NOTE: Currently there persist still some problems with image conversion on OS/2 so you might not be able to use images in your documents. We work on a solution to that issue.

After setting up Plucker please refer to chapter 4 on how to set up the necessary configuration files for Plucker.
