- We are running the Maximus bulletin board software.
-
- Our system has three main sections. You get to the sections by
- making a selection from the main menu.
-
- MESSAGES ... read/enter public/private messages
- FILES ... get/receive software and other files
- CHANGE MENU ... change your help-level etc
-
- In the message section, you'll notice it's divided into several "areas".
- You can think of a message area as a topic.
-
- The file section is also divided into areas. Think of the file section
- as a big library of software grouped into several areas.
-
- MAXIMUS provides GRAPHICS if your computer supports ANSI graphics.
- (Apple II does NOT support ANSI graphics.)
- If you see a lot of garbage on screen,
- Enter C for C)hange-User in the Main Menu
- Then V for V)ideo, T for TTY, Q for Quit
-
- HINT: If you get lost in the system, try pressing "?". The question
- mark is your way of asking for help. We should probably say "WHEN
- you get lost" because poking around in various corners of the system
- is half the fun.
