********** INSTRUCTIONS **********
When you first enter the door, you are asked to select a Category.
You may either enter the corresponding number of the Category you wish
or simply press ENTER to select ALL Categories.
After selecting a Category, you will be presented with a Menu Of
Options:
[A]rea Code - Will ask you to enter an Area Code to locate in the
Ads File. If anything matches your request, you'll be
presented with a summary list of Ads which were left by someone
in the Area Code you specified.
[C]hange Category - This allows you to choose a different Category
or select ALL Categories. Choosing this option will present
you with a list of Categories like that when you first logged
on to this Door.
[D]ownload Ads File - This option will allow you to download the
current Classified Ads Listing for Off-Line Viewing. You will
be presented with a menu of available Transfer Protocols. We
recommend Zmodem. The file you will receive will be named
KTFM_ADS.ZIP/LZH/ARJ (depending on your SysOps Archiving
System).
[H]elp - Displays this help file.
[L]ist Ads (Detail) - This option will start at the top of the list
in the Category you've chosen and display the Full Ad as it
was entered by the Advertiser. There are several additional
options which become available during the Detail Display:
[N]ext - Displays the NEXT Ad in the List.
[P]revious - Displays the PREVIOUS Ad in the List.
[E]dit - This option will be available ONLY if you are the
person who left this Ad. Edit will allow you to change any
of the information contained in that Ad.
[K]ill - This option will be available ONLY if you are the
person who left this Ad. Kill will allow you to Delete
(Permanently Remove) this particular Ad. If you Attached a
File to this Ad, the Attached File will also be removed.
[D]ownload - This option will be available ONLY if the SysOp
configured KT-FleaMarket to allow Attached Files. Download
will permit you to Download (receive) the Attached File for
this Ad.
[R]eturn - Returns you to the previous Menu/Screen.
[P]lace A New Ad - This option will permit you to place a New Ad in
the system. You will be presented with a screen for you to
enter all pertinent information about your Ad. You don't need
to complete every field however, you must, at a minimum, leave
a name. Depending on the way your SysOp has set up
KT-FleaMarket, your ad will either be put in the list
immediately or will require validation from the SysOp before
being presented to other users. Check with your SysOp for his
policies on this. Also, depending on your SysOp's
configuration, you may attach a file to your Ad so that others
may download it. Again, check with your SysOp if you have any
questions about placing New Ads.
[R]eturn To BBS - This option will return you to the BBS System.
[T]ext Search - Text Search allows you to search all Ads in the
Selected Category for a string of text. This is an exhaustive
search, meaning EVERYTHING is looked at. For instance, if you
wanted to list all Ads with a specific Zip Code or City, you
would simply enter that information in the Text Search Field
when prompted. Text Search also looks in the Description
Fields for the desired Text.
[Q]uick Search - Quick Search will ONLY search the Ad Heading for
the desired Text.
[S]can Ads (Summary) - The Scan Ads option will present a list of
Ad Headings in the selected Category. You may then choose one of
the Ad Numbers to view in Detail. While in the Detail Mode, all
options available in the [L]ist Ads (Detail) Option also become
