Program Files

Windows: Five files are used for this application:

SCREAM.EXE The actual program
SCREAM.INI The settings for the program configuration. This can be found in the default windows directory (usually C:\WINDOWS or C:\WINNT.
To restore default setup values, delete this file when the application is NOT running.
To specify another INI file for configuration, use the command line option /i:inifile.ini, where inifile.ini is replaced with the appropriate filename (directory can also be specified).
SCREAM.REC An automatically maintained list of the streams that the user has selected for recording (If Auto-record is not selected). Located in the same directory as SCREAM.INI
SCRFFT.M A Matlab script file for performing PSD plots. See Matlab Extension for information.
qtintf70.dll The Dynamic Link Library that allows portability between windows and linux. This file should be installed in the system directory (c:\windows\system on Win9X, c:\winnt\system32 on NT/2K), but can be located in the same directory as SCREAM.EXE if necessary.

Linux: 4 files are used for this application:

scream The actual program
scream.ini The settings for the program configuration. This can be found in the default directory (the same directory as SCREAM.EXE)
To restore default setup values, delete this file when the application is NOT running.
To specify another INI file for configuration, use the command line option
/i:inifile.ini
, where inifile.ini is replaced with the appropriate filename (directory can also be specified).
scream.rec An automatically maintained list of the streams that the user has selected for recording (If Auto-record is not selected). Located in the same directory as scream.ini
libborqt-6.9.0-qt2.3.so The Dynamic Link Library that allows portability between windows and linux. This file should be located with other libs eg. /usr/lib, and a symbolic link created which points to it (below)
/usr/lib/libborqt-6.9-qt2.3.so a symbolic link to the file mentioned above.

In addition, the help files and help viewer application (htmlbrowser) should be located in a sub-directory below the location of the main SCREAM executable, called \html (or /html). It is possible to override this location using a special entry in the INI file. To change the html help directory, add the following entry to the [custom] section of the ini file:

[custom]
HelpFilesDir=<enter a path to the location of the html help files>

Similarly, a replacement html Help Viewer can be specified, using the following ini file entry:

[custom]
HelpApp=<enter path and executable for an html browser>

Note that there should only be ONE [custom] section entered. There can be multiple entries in the section.

 

Files generated by the program (LOG files, GCF/SAC/MSD/SGY/PEP/SUD/CM6/UFA/UFB/WFDISC/W data files, TXT status files) are stored in the directories specified in the Setup window (see Recording Options, Error Logging, Log Files)
