To execute the Life-C program:
Open a view on the Artifacts plex.
Set your cursor on the Unix Program artifact "Life-C"
type in
M-x execute
Respond with a carriage return to "Unix program artifact: [Life-C ...]"
Respond either "pro" or "dbg" (or <TAB>) to "Variant: "
this should give you an interactive window with either the program, or
the debugger running.
It could also give you an error message "Life-C ... has no
`Executable...' derivative".
If you get the errror message, try
M-x derive-from (cursor still on the Unix-program artifact).
Respond with a carriage return to "Derive from: [Life-C ...]"
Respond to "Derivative-kind: " with E<TAB>d<TAB> (the minimum number of
keystrokes for Executable%sun4-dbg) or E<TAB>p<TAB> for Executable%sun4-pro
If you don't have a window on the present plex, respond to "Send notice
..." with yes.
After the program has been built you can now run it.
--------------------------
The document:
With cursor on latex-root artifact Life, try
M-x preview
"Preview: [Life ...]" <CR>
"No latex-directory derivative for Life. Schedule it? (yes or no)" yes<CR>
"Send notice..." yes<CR>
Job schedules. Reissue when complete.
M-x preview
"Preview: [Life ...]" <CR>
... xdvi previewer comes up now ...
or:
M-x hardcopy
