TGView is a Windows (95 and above) program that views and prints *.tgf files generated by the DOS version of Tilia^ĠGraph. The program will read *.tgf files versions 1.101.26. An important feature of the program is that it will print to any printer supported by Windows. Because DOS drivers do not exist for many newer printers, this feature alleviates a major shortcoming of Tilia.Graph. The program also uses Windows TrueType fonts.
TGView is the first step in the production of the full Tilia for Windows. I am continuously adding functionality and making updates available. The most recent version has all the graph style options.
As of this writing, the current version is 1.0.6.1. The program is available from the following anonymous ftp site:
site demeter.museum.state.il.us directory /pub/grimm file TGV1061.EXEYou may point your Web browser to ftp://demeter.museum.state.il.us/pub/grimm.Instructions for installation:
- Copy TGV1061.EXE to a temporary directory. TGV1061.EXE is a self-extracting executable.
- In the Windows Explorer, doubleclick on TGV1061.EXE to extract and run the setup program.
- Select a temporary destination directory in the "TGView 1.0.6.1 Self-Extractor" dialog box. All setup files will be extracted into this directory. I recommend you choose a directory or subdirectory with nothing else in it, because you may delete these files after installation. This directory is not the directory in which TGView will be permanently installed. Click "Finish" when ready.
- The standard InstallShield setup program will then run and lead you through the installation.
- To make a set of installation diskettes for installation on another computer, see the Readme.txt file in the temporary directory.
- The files in the temporary directory may be deleted after TGView is installed, but save these files if you think you may want to make a set of installation diskettes.
