Logging in and out
------------------
You should log in each time you visit ^nodetitle. This allows the system
to remember, for example, your terminal width and (more importantly)
which messages you have already seen.
IMPORTANT: When you get the prompt "Anyroom>" you are considered to be
visiting "Anyroom". When you leave the room, all messages in it will be
marked as having been read -- whether you read them or not. If you do not
visit a given room with new messages this call, the system will remember them
next call.
To save time you can log in on one line with:
.Login <YOUR PASSWORD>
There is a 20-second wait on bad passwords longer than one character, to
discourage password guessing.
To log out:
Terminate
To log out without the Yes/No confirmation:
.Terminate Quit-also
To log out without exiting ^nodetitle or breaking the modem connection:
.Terminate Stay
This is useful if several people are calling from a single terminal.
To log out without telling the system you've read any messages (as if you
had never been on the system):
.Terminate Abort
%COMMANDS Back to the commands help menu.
%HELPOPT Get a list of all help files in the system.
%MAINHELP First level of help system.
