GETTING HELP AND SEEING STATUS
While in terminal mode, pressing the Alt-Z sequence will
switch you to a help screen showing you a summary of all the
available commands. If the key for a command is pressed while
the help screen is still on, the screen will be turned off and
the command will be executed.
On the bottom of the help/status screen is some information
regarding some current settings and the status of the current
connection, as follows (in slightly compressed form).
+------------------------------------------------------------+
| Time..10:39:00 Online .... No | Capture...Off |
| Date..06-29-88 | Printer...Off |
| Baud..2400 Terminal .. VT102 | Script....None |
| Comm..N,8,1 Port ...... COM1 | Reg. Key..TELIX.KEY |
| Echo..Off Add LF .... Off | Dial Dir..TELIX.FON |
+------------------------------------------------------------+
Items included are: the current time and date, the connect
status, the elapsed time for the call in progress, the current
communications parameters, the state of the capture file and
printer, the currently executing script file (if there is
one), the current dialing directory, the current keyboard
macro definition file, and a few other items.
Telix has an optional status line which may be displayed at
the bottom or top of the screen (it may be controlled via the
Telix Configuration Menu, or toggled on/off by pressing Alt-8
in terminal mode). The status lines displays the current
communications setting such as baud rate and parity, the
state of the Capture file, whether or not the printer is on,
the currently executing script file (scripts are explained
elsewhere), and whether Telix is On-line or Off-line.
