          A    This option sets the limit for the amount of Email that
               any single caller can leave during a call.

          B    This option sets the limit for the number of feedback
               messages that any single caller can send during a call.

          C    This option sets the limit for the number of public messages
               that any single caller can send during a call.

          D    This option sets the limit for the number of chat attempts
               that any single caller can make during a call.

          E    This option sets the limit for the amount of Email that can
               be kept waiting for a certain user.

          F    This option sets the limit for the amount of Email that can
               be kept waiting for a Co-SysOp.

          G    This option sets the number of logons a user can have before
               the BBS checks to see (as a security feature) if the user
               knows what the birthdate they entered into the BBS at the first
               logon.

          H    This option tells the BBS where to swap memory to when the
               BBS "swaps" out of Renegade. The locations are either (D)isk,
               (E)MS Memory, (X)MS Memory, (N)on XMS Extended Memory or
               (A)nywhere.

          I    This option sets the number of attempts a user can make to
               log on to the BBS, before the BBS hangs up on them.

          J    This option sets the amount of days before a user has to
               change their password as a security precaution.

          K    This option sets the SysOp MCI chat color.  This only matters
               to the users that can view ANSI colors, as this color is the
               one that is used while the SysOp is typing.

          L    This goes along with option K, except that it's the user chat
               color.  (In case you're wondering.. the reason there are 2
               different colors for chat is basically so that the Sysop and
               user knows who said what.)

          M    This option sets the minimum amount of hard drive space (in K)
               that must be available on the hard drive in order to post a
               message.

          N    Pretty much the same as option M, except that it deals with the
               amount of space needed to be free to upload a file.

          O    This option sets the number of days that the SysOp back logs
               are kept.  (Maximum is 15 days.)

          P    This option sets the time of inactivity before the WFC screen
               is blanked.  (Screen Saver)

          R    This option defines the delay inbetween beeps to the user or
               the Sysop.

          S    This option defines the number of calls the BBS has received.

          T    This option defines the minimum baud rate that can call into
               the BBS. (This is normally used to "lock-out" 300 baud users
               who are normally too slow to do much.)

          U    This option defines the minimum baud rate that can download
               files from the BBS. (See note on option T)

          1-4  These are the F1-F4 Sysop Definable Macros that only the Sysop
               can use on the BBS.
