SATAN looks a lot better on a color display. - Run the "reconfig" script. It will patch some scripts with the pathnames of your PERL 5 executable, and of your WWW browser. If SATAN does not find the WWW browser that you want to use, edit the config/paths.pl file and change the line "$MOSAIC = [...]" to be whatever browser you prefer (make sure to preserve the quotations marks and punctuation of the line.) - Run the "make" command. It will build a few auxiliary programs. - Run the "satan" script. When run without arguments, it will start up a WWW browser. The command-line interface is described in the satan.8 manual page ("nroff -man" format). - Choose the `data management' link, and load the `foo.org' data base. It may take several tens of seconds to read all data from file. you will need a machine with lots of CPU (sparc5, indy, or better) and memory (32 MB or better). - Use your browser's PRINT button to print reports. Most documentation is accessible via your WWW browser. Enjoy. Wietse Venema / Dan Farmer (satan@fish.com)
