		Demonstrating VEDIT's Compiler Support
		--------------------------------------

Note: The on-line help topic "Command Macros - Compiler Support" describes
      this is complete detail.


Starting the Compiler Support
-----------------------------

>>> Starting VEDIT's Compiler Support:

1.  Select the menu item {MISC, Load Compiler support}.

    This loads the compiler support items into the {Tools} menu,
    which replaces the {Tutorial} menu.

    You can easily set up VEDIT to load the compiler support by
    default.

2.  The default compiler, linker and make commands are determined
    by the file COMPILE.CNF in the VEDIT Home Directory, e.g.
        c:/vedit/compile.cnf

    It is initially set up for Microsoft (Visual) C/C++. You may want to view
    or edit it now.

    The compiler support also lets you set up different compile/link/make
    parameters for different projects.

3.  Open the main source code file. Be sure you are switched to this file.

4.  To compile this file, select {Tools, Compile}.

    The output from the compiler will be shown, including any compilation
    errors. You can then browse the output, go to the first compilation
    error or continue editing.

    To correct the next compilation error, select {Tools, Next error} or
    press its hot-key.

NOTES:	You can override the commands in COMPILE.CNF by creating the
	file COMPILE.VCO in each local directory you use for
	programming. This file consists of the four lines - the
	desired Compiler, Linker, Debugger and Make commands. This
	way the correct Compiler/Assembler is always ready to run.
	COMPILE.VCO files also let you set the Compiler options needed
	for each of your programs. For example, one program may need
	to be compiled with the "medium model" option while another
	needs the "large model" option. The Compiler Support will
	adjust automatically.

DOS:	The DOS version requires that VSWAP.EXE has already been
	loaded into memory before starting VEDIT. This can be done by
	running the supplied COMPILE.BAT file which loads V-SWAP and
	then starts VEDIT's compiler support. For example:
    
		COMPILE ADDER.C
