Description of CrashTick's built-in Raid
========================================
What is Raid?
-------------
Raid is a message robot that lets you connect and disconnect to areas
and a few other things. In other words, you can select areas that you
want to get by just sending a netmail to Raid. If you are familiar
with AreaFix, this is the same thing but for file echos.
How do I talk to Raid?
----------------------
You communicate with Raid using netmail messages similar to those you
send to AreaFix. The message header of a message to Raid should look
like this:
From: Johan Billing
To: Raid
Subj: <password>
<commands>
...
---
<Password> is your private Raid password that you need to make sure that
nobody else alters your configuration. Your password is assigned by your
boss/feed, so you may have to ask him about a password.
"---" marks the end of a Raid message.
NOTE: The name doesn't necessarily have to be Raid, your feed may have
chosen other names instead.
What commands can I put in the text?
------------------------------------
Change connected areas:
[+]areaname Connect to an area. The '+' is optional.
-areaname Disconnect from an area
Special commands
%HELP Send this text
%LIST Send list of all areas
%QUERY Send list of all linked areas
%UNLINKED Send list of all unlinked areas
%INFO Send information about how you are configured
%PAUSE Do not send any files again until a %RESUME is sent
%RESUME Send files again. These commands can be very useful
if you are away for a few weeks and don't want to
get receive any files.
%PWD <pw> Changes your Raid password to the new password
specified after the command.
Examples:
=========
+NODEDIFF Connect to NODEDIFF
%LIST Send list of areas
-FIDONEWS Disconnect from FIDONEWS
%PWD xyzzy Change your Raid password to "xyzzy".
%PAUSE Turn off files for a while
%RESUME Turn on files again
