infopack getting started



Please download the package that has a "bin" in its name.
Please put this file into a directory completely on its
own. On a graphical windows, mac, or linux desktop, you
simply click the icon of the file that you downloaded: this will open
up a window with notes on what the program is doing.  On a command
line, start it like this:

	java -jar app_infopack-bin.jar

You may now start to use it:

	* Direct your web browser to http://127.0.0.1:9876 this
	  is on your computer) and you will find a welcome page.

	* You may press the 'Edit' link in the top line to edit
	  this page.

	* Add your name in 'CamelCase' (I would be adding OliverSeidel)
	   and press the 'save' button.

	* You should now have a new link by your name, that you can
	  click on; do so and it will generate a new page.

	* Now, please press the 'Edit' link at the top of the page
	  again, ...

	* ... and add 'Welcome to my __first__ page!' and press the
	  'save' button.

	* you will notice that the 'first' has been printed in bold
	  face.  Please refer to the following link
	  http://www.radeox.org/space/snipsnap-help for further
	  markup instructions.

And now, please go exploring the other options on your own.  I must
say that I am particularly proud of the layout function, that you can
find on the top of each page, and at the bottom of the page with
search results.

One more Note: For those of you who do not wish to have a window
popping up when the server runs, please find the property entry
'net.os10000.bldsys.lib_logger.Logger.window_title' and change it to
'null' (without the apostrophes).  This will direct logging to stderr.
