This BBS is unlike any other BBS. In fact, it is more like a tape recorder
than a traditional BBS. Whatever you type at the > prompt is recorded,
unless it's a command letter.

Some examples follow. Note the > prompt.

> Hello. <-- This would be saved
> 1 <-- This would list from that line number (i.e. line #1) onwards
> ? <-- This would display a quick overview of commands
> Hi there. <-- This would be saved, since it's not a command
> S <-- This is the Search command

If you've used other BBS's before, you may expect to find bulletins and menus
and message bases; this system has none of those things. It simply records
what you (and other people) type and lets you search through it all. Think of
it as a text editor program used by the whole community.

If you require further information, enter ? at the > prompt.
