Here is what these commands can do for you:
"LO"
This command lists the Bullenet nodes. Because each Bullenet node can carry
over 22,000 phone lines, the number of nodes in the Bullenet tends to
remain fairly small, so a simple sequential listing is provided.
"LF"
This command lists the FIDOnet nodes, sorted by ascending node within
net within zone.
"LF i:j/k"
This command displays information on node "k", in net "j", in zone "i".
"LF i:j" or "LF i:j/"
Either of these commands list information on all nodes in net "j", in
zone "i".
"LF j/k"
This command displays information on node "k", in net "j", in your own
zone.
"LF k"
This command displays information on node "k", in your own net, in your
own zone.
"LF i:" or "LF i:/"
Either of these commands list information on all nodes in zone "i".
"LF :"
This command lists information on all nodes in your own zone.
"LF /" or "LF :/"
Either of these commands list information on all nodes in your own net.
"LF j/"
This command lists information on all nodes in net "j", in your own
zone.
"LC"
This command lists all FIDOnet nodes, sorted in alphabetical order, by
country.
"LC xxxx"
This command lists all FIDOnet nodes whose country begins with the
character string "xxxx". The "xxxx" string can be 1 to 8 characters.
You should not use abbreviations for country names, except in the case
of "USA".
"LS"
This command lists all FIDOnet nodes, sorted in alphabetical order, by
state, province or territory. Nodes in countries that do not have
state, province or territory political subdivisions are not displayed.
"LS xxxx"
This command lists all FIDOnet nodes whose state, province or territory
begins with the character string "xxxx". The "xxxx" string can be 1 to
16 characters. You should not use abbreviations.
"LL"
This command lists all FIDOnet nodes, sorted in alphabetical order, by
location. In most cases, the "location" is the city, town, village or,
possibly, county (as in the case of New York City, which contains five
counties).
"LL xxxx"
This command lists all FIDOnet nodes whose location begins with the
character string "xxxx". The "xxxx" string can be 1 to 16 characters.
You should not use abbreviations.
"LA"
This command lists all FIDOnet nodes, sorted by ascending telephone city
code or area code, within country code.
"LA nnn"
Either of these commands list all FIDOnet nodes whose telphone country
code begins with the string of digits, "nnn". The "nnn" string can be 1
to 4 digits. Use "1" as the country code for the USA, Canada and most
Caribbean islands.
"LA nnn-"
Either of these commands list all FIDOnet nodes whose telphone country
code exactly matches the string of digits, "nnn". The "nnn" string can
be 1 to 4 digits.
"LA nnn-mmm"
This command lists all FIDOnet nodes whose telephone country code is
exactly the digit string "nnn", and whose telephone area code begins
with the digit string "mmm". The "mmm" string can be 1 to 16 digits.
