[hpsdr] ghpsdr3 Windows Help

[David McQuate]

Mercury FPGA version 3.0 has the capability of providing up to 4 
simultaneous independent receivers.
Version 2.9a does not.

In the Ghpsdr3 windows folder, I've named the version 3.0 files   .cdf   
and   .jic  files      "Mercury4rcvrs"
to make it easy to distinguish them.

The Program-Mercury-EPSC16.bat    file first programs Ozy to act as an 
Altera USB Blaster, and then
programs Mercury.  It has not yet been updated to Quartus 10, but you 
can easily make the change--

Look for the program     quartus_pgm.exe,    probably in a folder   
qprogrammer/bin    under the quartus main folder,
which is probably in the root directory on your hard disk,  eg   c:\altera

In the batch file you'll see several lines like

SET DIRECTORY=c:\altera\91sp2\qprogrammer\bin\quartus_pgm

Change one of those so it matches the path to the Quartus 10   
quartus_pgm.exe    on your system,
and select the corresponding option when you run the batch file.

If you'll email me the path you find for quartus_pgm.exe, I'll update 
the batch file on the SVN.
