PKG installs, updates and removes software *.SVP packages. Such packages are
|
| 1883 |
mateusz.vi |
8 |
distributed with the SvarDOS system and may also be obtained with PKGNET from
|
|
|
9 |
the online SvarDOS repository.

PKG is configured through the %DOSDIR%\CFG\PKG.CFG configuration file. This
|
|
|
12 |
file provides information about the directories where packages have to be
|
|
|
13 |
installed. An example is shown at the bottom of this file below.
|
|
|
14 |
|
|
|
15 |
PKG can display its messages in a variety of languages. To select its language,
|
|
|
16 |
it looks at the %LANG% environment variable (for example "SET LANG=PL") and
|
|
|
17 |
loads translated messages from its PKG.LNG language file, that should be in the
|
|
|
18 |
same directory as PKG.EXE. If the LNG file cannot be found, or if the %LANG%
|
|
|
19 |
variable points at a language that is not supported by PKG, then all messages
|
|
|
20 |
are displayed in english.
