VAX COBOL V5.4 SSB brief kit installation instructions for OpenVMS VAX
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    In order to install your kit, you must have system privileges and do
    the following steps.

    Detailed information is available in the Installation Guide.  

    1. COBOL054 requires OpenVMS VAX V6.1 or higher.

    2. Set default to the directory to hold the kits.  For example:
  
	$ SET DEFAULT SYS$UPDATE
  
    3. Copy the files for installation.

	$! anonymous ftp to ftp.digital.com
	$ FTP ftp.digital.com (login with username anonymous)
	bin
	get "/private/deccobol/vms/UNZIP-VAX.EXE"    UNZIP-VAX.EXE
	get "/private/deccobol/vms/COBOL054.ZIP"     COBOL054.ZIP
	get "/private/deccobol/vms/COBOL054DOC.ZIP"  COBOL054DOC.ZIP
	quit
	$! Unpack using UNZIP-VAX.EXE
	$ UNZIP :== $SYS$UPDATE:UNZIP-VAX.EXE
	$ UNZIP COBOL054.ZIP
	$ UNZIP COBOL054DOC.ZIP
    
    4. Install COBOL054 via VMSINSTAL.  This will also install the V5.4 RTL.
    
       You may also want to move all the documentation files to [SYSHLP]:
    
        $ rename [SYSUPD]VAX_COBOL_*_V54.* [SYSHLP]
