The REVIEW command makes life a lot easier for SYSOPs to check incoming
messages for suitability. Its also handy for reading the mail
and many other things. The command looks like:
REVIEW {search}
If search is not specified then "V" is assumed for SYSOPs and "M"
for other users.
REVIEW <== SYSOPS see messages in REVIEW status. Users
see only their unread mail.
REVIEW H <== Show messages in hold
REVIEW M <== Show my unread mail
Each message is displayed and user is asked to tell what should be done.
Options are Kill, Leave, Release, Hold, rEply, Change, and Quit. The
last action leaves the message untouched and terminates the review
command. Note that the letter "E" is used to indicate reply. Users are
restricted to K, L, E, and Q.
For remote SYSOPSs or other users, each message is shown as if it was
the subject of a read command. Then the user is prompted for an action.
If the action is REPLY then an automatic SR to the message is issued.
After the reply is completed, the user is again prompted for an action.
He can then KILL, etc or even REPLY again.
If the action is CHANGE then an automatic EM for the message is issued.
After the change is completed, the user is again prompted for an action.
Local SYSOPs see the messages in the full screen editor with the title
line showing on the top line of the box. Local SYSOPs indicate the
action by pressing ALT-x where x is the letter of the action to be
taken. The local SYSOP can use the regular mode as above if desired by
setting NO_FULLSCREEN_REVIEW = Y in PARMS.BB
