[drats_users] D-RATS for the MAC

[Debbie Fligor]

Hi Rob,
you should have gotten forms the first time you ran the program.  d-rats makes a directory called .d-rats in your home directory (folder), and makes subdirectories under that.  Here's what mine looks like:

471 mnementh> ls .d-rats
Form_Templates		d-rats.config		maps			repeater.config		static_locations
Saved_Forms		logs			messages		repeater.log
481 mnementh> ls Form_Templates/
ICS213_OR_WashCoARES.xml	ICS213_US_OS.xsl		hics260.xml			radiogram.xml
ICS213_OR_WashCoARES.xsl	default.xsl			hics260.xsl			radiogram.xsl
ICS213_US_OS.xml		email.xml			memo.xml


I'm in /Users/fligor  for the first listing (ls):

If you're not used to using Terminal to access files you might not know how to see these, since the folder starts with a "." it is hidden from your view in the Finder.

you should be able to put the form files into your  Form_Templates folder and then use them, if yours is for some reason empty, but you'll need to use the "cp" or "mv" command in Terminal to do so unless you want to change the finder to show all the unix files all the time (if you do, check out http://www.macgeekery.com/tips/view_hidden_files_and_folders_in_finder )

I hope this helps.
