		      Installation of GOMscript
		      =========================

1. Unzip and untar the file. A directory 'gomscript' will be created:

   > gzip -d gomscript.tar.gz
   > tar -xvf gomscript.tar

2. If you have the source code distribution, type 'make'. This will
   create the 'main' executable and the necessary DLLs in ./vbx


3. Setting the environment variables:

   a.) All the SOM environment variables have to be set correctly. Use
       DSOM's 'somdchk' utility to verify.

   b.) VBXDIR has to be set to the directory where the GOMscript VBXs
       reside, e.g.:

       export VBXDIR=/home/my_home/gomscript/vbx

   c.) In order to use the Corba (DSOM) extension, COMPONENTS has to
       point to a directory where the components are located, e.g.:
       
       export COMPONENTS=/home/my_home/gomscript/Components

The script 'startAll' is a skeleton example for setting GOMscript and
DSOM environment variables and starting the interpreter. Please note
that you will have to modify the DSOM environment variables to work
in your settings.
	

4. Start the GOMscript interpreter ('main -help' for instructions)

   a.) As stand-alone:
   
         main

   b.) As daemon:

         main -p 10000

       Start the client:

         client <hostname> 10000

    c.) As agent execution platform (daemon):

         main -p 10000 -i
