Startup window

This is where you select a system to read messages from. It should be fairly self-explanatory as the only functions are 'Rescan' and 'Open' along with a pick list of systems.

'Rescan' looks for new mail packets in your download directory while 'Open' enters the selected system.

The 'Systems' list needs a little explaining. Displayed here are the names of all bulletin boards / Internet systems you have configured in Systems Configuration in ConfigTHOR. You may select any of them to open for reading.

You can select a system in one of these ways:


-  Double-clicking  with  the  mouse  on  a system opens this for
   reading  and  un-archives  any  message  packets that might be
   waiting for this system (Same as pressing Open.)

-  The cursor keys can be used up or down to select a system.

-  Pressing Return/Enter on the keyboard or 'o' for 'Open' opens
   the currently selected system.

-  The 'Open' gadget opens the currently selected system.

This  list  also  has  some "flags" to the left of the system name which are
used  to  give you information:

*  -  This means that you have 1 or more mail packets waiting for this 
      system in the download directory.

U  -  This means that there are unread messages on this system.

E  -  This means that you have events outstanding on this system. 

+  -  This means that there are unread messages to you on this system.

NOTE: Holding down one of the Shift-keys on the keyboard while entering a system, will make THOR skip the parsing of any message packets that might be waiting in the download directory.
