For more details see:Step by step instructions for setting up Directories for Data Preparation

To check your $DLXSROOT, type the following command at the command prompt:

echo $DLXSROOT

mkdir -p $DLXSROOT/prep/w/workshopfa/data
cd $DLXSROOT/prep/w/workshopfa

cp $DLXSROOT/prep/s/samplefa/data/*.xml $DLXSROOT/prep/w/workshopfa/data/.

cp $DLXSROOT/prep/s/samplefa/samplefa.ead2002.dcl   $DLXSROOT/prep/w/workshopfa/workshopfa.ead2002.dcl
cp $DLXSROOT/prep/s/samplefa/samplefa.concat.ead.dcl $DLXSROOT/prep/w/workshopfa/workshopfa.concat.ead.dcl
mkdir -p $DLXSROOT/obj/w/workshopfa
mkdir -p $DLXSROOT/bin/w/workshopfa
cp $DLXSROOT/bin/s/samplefa/preparedocs.pl $DLXSROOT/bin/w/workshopfa/preparedocs.pl
cp $DLXSROOT/bin/s/samplefa/Makefile $DLXSROOT/bin/w/workshopfa/Makefile

   1  DLXSROOT = /l1
   2  NAMEPREFIX = samplefa
   3  FIRSTLETTERSUBDIR = s

Set Up Directories and Files for XPAT Indexing

For more details see:Set Up Directories and Files for XPAT Indexing

mkdir -p $DLXSROOT/idx/w/workshopfa

cp $DLXSROOT/prep/s/samplefa/samplefa.blank.dd  $DLXSROOT/prep/w/workshopfa/workshopfa.blank.dd
cp $DLXSROOT/prep/s/samplefa/samplefa.extra.srch $DLXSROOT/prep/w/workshopfa/workshopfa.extra.srch

Both of these files need to be edited to reflect the new collection name and the paths to your particular directories.

cd $DLXSROOT/prep/w/workshopfa

Edit the files to change all samplefa and s/samplefa to workshopfa w/workshopfa

After editing the files, you can check to make sure you changed all the "samplefa" strings with the following command:

grep -l "samplefa" $DLXSROOT/prep/w/workshopfa/*
