General Features:
M - Message Base
Where all the discussions are being read or entered. There are a great
number of message areas for all different kinds of topics.
F - File Section
This section is for IBM users only. It contains files that can be
transfered through XMODEM or XMODEM/CRC. You should be able to have
access to all the file areas. Also, there are file discussion messages
for each area. The message commands can be called with a ':' prior to
the command.
D - Database Manager (DBMS):
This area contains entries that are entered by you, the users. Basically
it works just like a real database manager, but this is on-line.
Sub-general Features:
E - Eletronic Mail
This is where you can send personal or private mail to users. If you
have level 6 or greater, you will be able to use the mutil-receiever
feature which is very powerful. Read the [H]elp file in there for more
info.
V - Voting Booth
This is where the system polls are being taken at. You can vote on
numerous topics and find out the results right away, as of that time.
O - On-line Entertainment
This feature is for users that want to take a little rest and enjoy
games like Hang Man or Trivia Madness.
Others:
A - Announcements
This will print out all the system news that have been entered by the
sysops.
B - System Bulletins
This contains all the text files that are not closely related to the
system at all. For example a BBS list or any other kinds of news that
the sysops want to get your attention to.
C - Comment
Sends a private mail to Kiriwuth Path, the main SysOp.
U - User List/Analysis
This contains both the user list and the user analysis. In the user
list, you can list users in a particular state or computer or
just all. In the user analysis, you can tabulate the user status
such as computers and ages. If you own an IBM and supports ANSI, you
will have an option to see a graph of the computer analysis.
S - Your Setups/Status
This is where all the possible setups that you can re-configure to your
desire.
Z - New/System Status
This will just show the new logon table that you saw before the main
prompt and the whole system user inputs.
R - Recent Callers
This shows a list of the recent callers. It will have the name, time
used, city and state, and baud rate that he or she called in.
N - Next Caller Message
This is the message that you saw after the announcements. It is a
message that has been entered by a recent caller.
I - Increase System Time
This is where you trade in all your times points that you may gain
around the system especially from the On-line Entertainment.
X - Shows this help file.
Y - Yell at Kiriwuth Path for a chat.
L - Log off.
Chain Command:
To call the regular chain command, enter a period followed by the
stack of commands separated by comas. Semi-colons will be accepted as a
return. To call the flash chain command, enter 2 periods as to 1 for reg.
You can also just hit a period to type something for the sysop to see.
