ZOG/Vinson Technology Demonstration Project: System Description. Volume 2

Abstract

The ZOG system is a user-modifiable, menu-oriented, rapid response human-computer interface on a network of powerful workstations, the PERQ Systems Corporation's PERQ microcomputers. This document describes how the ZOG system operates. This is not a user's guide but a description of what is behind all of the menu creation and other standard features. This document is divided into four separate and distinct volumes. It was written this way to best describe the total system while keeping volumes apart so as to make each one accessible without having to go through the others. The first volume is the ZOG System Description. The system description includes a description of: An overview of the ZOG system, the initialization process, basic system flow, how accessing frames and subnets is accomplished, ZOG utilities, ZOG editors and ZOG and ZOG agents. The second volume is ZOG structures. This volume lists all of the different structures used within the code that makes up to ZOG. The third volume is ZOG Files. ZOG Files lists and describes all of the files that ZOG needs in order to run. These files are in addition to all the source and executable files that make up the ZOG system. The fourth volume is ZOG Modules. ZOG Modules goes through ZOG, module by module, describing what is going on.
