If someone has entered a message in a room since you were last in that
room, the BBS will consider it to be new to you, and you can use [G]oto to go
to it automagically, or .G(oto) ROOMNAME to go to it manually.
(SEE: .H(elp) GOTO)
If for some reason you enter a room and decide that you want
the system to think that you HAVEN'T been in that room, the [S]kip
command is available to accomplish this.
The [S]kip command usage is identical to the [G]oto command usage. To skip
the room that you are currently in and go to the next room with unread messages:
[S]kip
The BBS will print out the name of the room it is going to, and will
remember that you've Skipped the room you are leaving.
To skip the current room and go to room ROOMNAME:
.S(kip) ROOMNAME
If you get to the point where there are no more rooms with unread messages
besides the one(s) that you've skipped, the BBS will print out the list of
rooms that you've skipped and change those rooms' status from Skipped back
to simply rooms with unread messages.
Terminating with rooms on the Skipped list simply leaves them marked as having
unread messages in them for the next time you login.
