The file name arguments to splfr and spld should not have
embedded spaces. For file names with spaces, you can use the corresponding
short file name.
Selecting the `Manual' or `Release Notes' item in the
`Help' menu may give an error message similar to
`... \!Help\100#!Manual.lnk could not be found'. This happens when
Adobe Acrobat Reader is not installed or if it has not been installed
for the current user.
Open C:\Program Files\SICStus Prolog 3.12.8\doc\pdf\ in the
explorer and try opening
relnotes.pdf. If this brings up a configuration dialog for
Adobe Acrobat, configure Acrobat and try the `Help' menu
again. Alternatively, you may have to obtain Adobe Acrobat. It is
available for free from http://www.adobe.com/.
Windows 2000 and later:
We recommend that SICStus be installed by a user with administrative
privileges and that the installation is made `For All Users'.
If SICStus is installed for a single user, then SICStus will not find the
license information when started by another user.
In this case, the windowed version of SICStus (spwin) will
put up a dialog where a license can be entered.
The first time the installer is run, it will install necessary system
files for supporting the new `Windows Installer' technology from
Microsoft. This will fail unless the user has administrative rights. A
typical symptom is an error message asking for `msiexec'. The
Windows Installer technology is already part of Windows 2000 Service
Pack 3 and later.
