    1. Running in batch

       There are Bourne shell scripts provided in the $MATLAB/install
       directory to run each of the four types of installations
       non-interactively. They are:

            batch1      - normal

                          Install everything.

            batch2      - client

                          Install symbolic links to MATLAB scripts and copy
                          MATLAB man pages only.

            batch3      - client with license manager

                          Do not use on convex or cray.

            batch4      - license manager only

                          Do not use on convex or cray.

       These are template files. Each file has a set of assignment
       statements clearly marked in the file that need to be filled
       in by you with values specific to your installation.

       REMEMBER!

            1. NO BLANKS around the "=" in the assignments.
            2. batch3 & batch4 AUTOMATICALLY install the license
               manager
            3. If you answer 'no' for a particular assignement do
               not fill in the next assignement if there is one. 

       WATCH OUT!

            1. If the MATLAB root directory is part of an AUTOMOUNTED
               directory supply a directory path for MATLAB that does
               not include any mount point information. It must be a path
               that forces a mount to be done if it is currently unmounted.

       Specifically,

            batch1 requires:

                MATLAB=...directory path of MATLAB root directory...
                OUTPUT_FILE=...filename for output from the install...
                IS_SIMULINK_LICENSED=yes OR no
                CHECK_SYMBOLIC_FOR_MAPLE=yes OR no  (32-bit Maple Libraries)
			(supported platforms except alpha)
                MAPLE_LIBRARIES_DIR=...directory path containing the 32-bit
			Maple Libraries: maple.hlp, maple.ind, maple.lib ...
                CHECK_SYMBOLIC_FOR_MAPLE64=yes OR no  (64-bit Maple Libraries)
			(for alpha only)
                MAPLE_LIBRARIES64_DIR=...directory path containing the 64-bit
			Maple Libraries: maple.hlp, maple.ind, maple.lib ...
                SITE_ID=...site identification string provided by MathWorks...
                WANT_ACCESS_DIR=yes OR no
                ACCESS_DIR=...directory path for links to MATLAB scripts...
                WANT_MAN_PAGES=yes OR no
                MAN_PAGES_DIR=...directory path for manual pages...
                WANT_LICENSE_MANAGER=yes OR no
                        (Ignored on convex and cray.)
                WANT_LMBOOT_LINK=yes OR no
                        (Ignored on convex and cray.)

            batch2 requires:

                MATLAB=...directory path of MATLAB root directory...
                OUTPUT_FILE=...filename for output from the install...
                WANT_ACCESS_DIR=yes OR no
                ACCESS_DIR=...directory path for links to MATLAB scripts...
                WANT_MAN_PAGES=yes OR no
                MAN_PAGES_DIR=...directory path for manual pages...

            batch3 requires: (Do not use on convex or cray.)

                MATLAB=...directory path of MATLAB root directory...
                OUTPUT_FILE=...filename for output from the install...
                WANT_ACCESS_DIR=yes OR no
                ACCESS_DIR=...directory path for links to MATLAB scripts...
                WANT_MAN_PAGES=yes OR no
                MAN_PAGES_DIR=...directory path for manual pages...
                WANT_LMBOOT_LINK=yes OR no

            batch4 requires: (Do not use on convex or cray.)

                MATLAB=...directory path of MATLAB root directory...
                OUTPUT_FILE=...filename for output from the install...
                WANT_LMBOOT_LINK=yes OR no

       A batch install involves the following steps:

       1. For each host select the type of install. Reuse any batch
          files that don't need to change. For example, if you use
          batch1 to do a normal install with license manger on a server
          then a single batch2 file could be used (in principle) to install
          MATLAB on all the other hosts that mount the MATLAB root directory
          from the server.
       2. Make a local copy of the file.
       3. Edit the file and fill in the assignments.
       4. As root execute the file.
