@0A@    TomCat! allows you the ability to pre-configure your default values to
    permit fast and easy retrieval of your new messages along with uploading
    your replies.

    With the advent of "robot dialers", it's also handy to have all your
    settings defined ahead of time allowing the dialers to automatically
    logon to the BBS, upload replies and download new messages during the
    early morning hours.  The mail can then be waiting for you when you
    enjoy your morning coffee.

    Shown below is a description of the available options.  Depending on
    the system configuration, some options may or may not be available.

        @0E@[@0F@C@0E@]onfigure conferences -
             @0A@This option allows you to select which conferences you wish to
             include in your QWK packet.  Normally, you would select only
             those conferences that are of interest to you and exclude the
             remaining ones.

             This is identical to the @0E@[@0F@U@0E@]pdate Conference Scan/Read@0A@ option
             found on the BBS's Message Menu.  Selecting conferences here
             will also update which conferences are selected when scanning
             or reading messages while on the BBS.

             Selecting this option displays a list of conferences available
             with the "last read" message number enclosed in parentheses.
             This number is only displayed if the conference has been
             previously selected.  Selection is indicated by a asterisk (@0C@*@0A@)
             displayed to the left of the conference description.  If a
             greater-than symbol "@0C@>@0A@" is displayed, it indicates that this
             conference has been selected for personal mail only.  General
             messages from this conference will not be included in the QWK
             packet.  Shown below is a sample display.

     - More below, use [@0F@+@0E@] to view - "@0C@>@0E@" means personal mail only -

    Enter #, [@0F@L@0E@]ist, [@0F@+@0E@]Next, [@0F@S@0E@]ort, List [@0F@A@0E@]ll, List [@0F@O@0E@]nly selected,
    [@0F@T@0E@]oggle menu, or [@0F@ENTER@0E@] to quit?

             @0A@After a list of available conferences has been displayed, you
             are presented with a prompt of available options.  Shown below
             is a description of those options.

             @0E@Enter # -
                  @0A@This number indicates the conference you wish to update
                  from the list displayed.  Selecting a number presents a
                  similar sub-prompt.

                     @0E@Do you want to scan "General Message Area"
                     [P=Personal only] [@0F@Y@0E@/@0F@n@0E@/@0F@p@0E@]?

                  @0A@Shown below is a description of these options.

                       @0E@[@0F@P@0E@]ersonal only -
                            @0A@When this flag is set, only messages from this
                            conference addressed to you will be extracted.
                            This is handy for picking up mail outside of your
                            usual conferences.

                       @0E@[@0F@Y@0E@]es -
                            @0A@This is used to select this conference for all
                            messages since the last time you read mail.  This
                            will also update your settings in WILDCAT! as well.
                            After @0E@[@0F@Y@0E@]es@0A@ has been entered, you're presented
                            with the following sub-prompt.

       @0E@Message numbers in this conference range from @0F@1@0E@ to @0F@904@0E@.  Current is @0F@900@0E@.
       Enter new message pointer, [@0F@H@0E@]elp, [@0F@ENTER@0E@ = no change]:

                            @0A@From here you can reset your "last read" message
                            number by any of 4 possible methods.

                            @0F@10       @0E@- Sets your message pointer to 10
                            @0F@-10      @0E@- Gives you the last 10 messages
                            @0F@10%      @0E@- Gives you the last 10% of total number
                                       of messages
                            @0F@mm/dd/yy @0E@- Gives you all messages since the date
                                       specified

                            @0A@After selection, TomCat! will proceed to reset the
                            message pointer for this conference.  Additional
                            information is available by selecting the @0E@[@0F@H@0E@]elp
@0A@                            option.

                       @0E@[@0F@N@0E@]o -
                            @0A@When chosen, this will turn off all scanning and
                            reading of mail from both TomCat! and from within
                            WILDCAT!

                  @0E@[@0F@L@0E@]ist -
                       @0A@Redisplays a list of all conferences starting from the
                       lowest available number.

                  @0E@[@0F@+@0E@]Next -
                       @0A@This option is only displayed if the number of
                       available conferences exceeds the maximum allowed per
                       screen.  When chosen, this will display the next screen
                       full of conferences.

                  @0E@[@0F@-@0E@]Prev -
                       @0A@This performs the exact same function as the @0E@[@0F@+@0E@]Next
@0A@                       option except it displays the previous screen full
                       of conferences.  These two options together are used
                       to scroll forward and backward in the list of
                       conferences.

                  @0E@[@0F@S@0E@]ort -
                       @0A@This option is used to select the method in which the
                       conferences are displayed on the screen.  This is only
                       provided as a convenience when updating conferences.
                       This sort method applies when using any of the List
                       methods.  Selecting this option presents the following
                       sub-prompt.

                           @0E@Sort by [@0F@N@0E@]ame or [@0F@C@0E@]onference number [@0F@n@0E@/@0F@c@0E@]

                       @0A@Below is a description of the sort methods.

                            @0E@[@0F@N@0E@]ame -
                                 @0A@This will display conferences sorted in
                                 alphabetic order.

                            @0E@[@0F@C@0E@]onference number -
                                 @0A@This will display conferences sorted in
                                 numeric order.

                  @0E@List [@0F@A@0E@]ll -
                       @0A@This will display all conferences available to you.
                       This option in conjunction with the @0E@List [@0F@O@0E@]nly
                       selected@0A@ are used to toggle the main @0E@[@0F@L@0E@]ist@0A@ method.
                       For example, if @0E@List [@0F@O@0E@]nly selected@0A@ option was the
                       last list method chosen, selecting the @0E@[@0F@L@0E@]ist@0A@ option
                       will display only those conferences are were
                       previously selected.

                  @0E@List [@0F@O@0E@]nly selected -
                       @0A@Performs the same as @0E@List [@0F@A@0E@]ll@0A@ except it will only
                       display conferences that have been previously
                       selected (indicated by a asterisk (@0C@*@0A@) next to the
                       conference description).  All other conferences will
                       not be listed.

                  @0E@[@0F@T@0E@]oggle menu -
                       @0A@This option is used to globally change the selection
                       of conferences.  Selecting this option presents the
                       following sub-prompt.

                       @0E@Global conference toggle options:

                       [@0F@1@0E@] Deselect all conferences
                       [@0F@2@0E@] Select all conferences for all mail
                       [@0F@3@0E@] Select remaining confs for personal mail only
                       [@0F@4@0E@] Turn off all "personal mail only" selections

                       Enter selection, [@0F@ENTER@0E@] to quit?

                       @0A@From here, selecting the appropriate number will
                       perform the desired operation.

                  @0E@[@0F@ENTER@0E@] to quit -
                       @0A@Exits the Configure Conferences selection and return
                       to the Configuration Menu.

        @0E@[@0F@R@0E@]eset high msg pointers -
             @0A@This option is used to reset the "last read" messages pointers
             in the previously selected conferences.  It will not reset any
             of the "private mail only" conferences or the unselected
             conferences.  Selecting this option presents the following
             sub-prompt.

             There are three methods of setting your high message pointers -
             by number, by percentage of total messages in conference, or by
             date.

             @0E@Examples:

                @0F@-10      @0E@- Gives you the last 10 messages in each conference
                @0F@10%      @0E@- Gives you the last 10% of total number of messages
                @0F@mm/dd/yy @0E@- Gives you all messages since the date specified

             Set message pointers [@0F@ENTER@0E@ = abort]:

             @0A@From here, you can enter the appropriate method.  Depending on
             how many conferences have been selected, this may take a moment
             or two.  When TomCat! is finished, you will be returned to the
             Configuration Menu.

        @0E@[@0F@U@0E@]pload PS-BBS.PTR file -
             @0A@Mail packets created by TomCat! contain a special pointer file.
             This file is a image of the high message number before and
             after the last mail packet download.  It is useful for resetting
             pointers after a failed transfer, or to recover lost messages if
             a packet is accidently deleted.

             To use this function, you must first extract the xxx.PTR file
             (where xxx = BBS ID) from the last QWK packet successfully
             downloaded from this BBS.  Then from the Configuration Menu,
             selecting @0E@[@0F@R@0E@]eset message pointers@0A@ option, upload the xxx.PTR
             file when prompted.  After the upload is complete, you will be
             presented with the following sub-prompt.

                   @0E@This pointer file is dated mm/dd/yy at hh/mm/ss.

                   Do you want to reset pointers [@0F@B@0E@]efore or [@0F@A@0E@]fter this
                   pointer file [@0F@B@0E@/@0F@a@0E@]?

             @0A@Depending on the selection, the message pointers will be set
             accordingly.  This will allow you to recover from a failed
             download or possibly a lost QWK packet.

        @0E@[@0F@N@0E@]ew files scan -
             @0A@Depending on the system configuration, you can include a list of
             recently uploaded files by toggling this option.

        @0E@[@0F@D@0E@]ate for new files -
             @0A@Selecting this option allows you to specify what date to perform
             a new files search when downloading your next QWK packet.

        @0E@[@0F@I@0E@]nclude new bulletins -
             @0A@Depending on the system configuration, you can include all the
             recently updated bulletin by toggling this option.

        @0E@[@0F@M@0E@]aximum packet sizes -
             @0A@This option is used to define the maximum number of messages
             per packet extracted from the available conferences along with
             the maximum number of messages per conference.  Selecting this
             option allows you to set these values up to the maximum defined
             by the SysOp.

        @0E@[@0F@A@0E@]ttachment size limit -
             @0A@Messages within WILDCAT! support the ability to have files
             attached to them.  This option allows you to define the maximum
             file size allowed in Kbytes that is attached to a message you
             wish to be included with the QWK packet.  Once the file size has
             been defined, you are then asked if you would like to have
             messages NOT addressed to you with attached files to be sent, or
             only those that ARE addressed to you included in the QWK packet.

        @0E@[@0F@T@0E@]ransfer protocol -
             @0A@This is used to define what transfer protocol will be used when
             uploading and downloading QWK packets.  This is used in the
             exact same manner as selecting your default protocol while in
             the BBS.  When the default method is chosen here, it will then
             automatically update your user settings when using the BBS.
             Selecting this option presents the following sub-prompt.

             @0E@Select a default protocol:

             [@0F@S@0E@]elect at time of transfer

             [@0F@Z@0E@] Zmodem   [@0F@Y@0E@] Ymodem   [@0F@O@0E@] Xmodem/1K  [@0F@C@0E@] Xmodem/CRC
             [@0F@X@0E@] Xmodem   [@0F@K@0E@] Kermit   [@0F@Q@0E@]uit

             PROTOCOL MENU [@0F@S Z Y O C X K Q@0E@]:

             @0A@If a specific protocol is selected, when starting the download
             or upload, you will need to make sure you are using that exact
             same protocol on your end.

        @0E@[@0F@P@0E@]acker (archiver) -
             @0A@This option is used to select what compression method is used
             on the QWK packet.  Depending on how the system is configured,
             you may or may not have all the compression methods listed
             below.  Selecting this option presents the following sub-prompt.
