BULLETRON ORDER ENTRY
You are about to order an item from our catalog or purchase a
subscription to this BBS. Bulletron will prompt you for specific
information. When you have entered all the information, you will be
able to edit the order just as you can edit a normal message. The
following command line will be displayed to you:
Enter I999,R999,D999,E999,L,Q,S,SR,C OR ?
If you type "?" and [RETURN], Bulletron will display the editor commands:
I999 - Insert 1 line ahead of line #999
R999 - Replace line #999
D999 - Delete line #999
E999 - Edit line #999 (word replace)
L - List the message
Q - Quit (Abandon the text entered)
S - Send the message
SR - Send the message with return receipt
C - Continue (Add additional lines at end)
Here is what these post-enter commands do for you:
"L"
This command lists your entire message, assigning line numbers to each
line. These line numbers appear only during this procedure, and will
not appear in the finished message.
"R999"
This command allows you to go directly to a line, by number and replace only
that line to correct errors. First list (L) the message, and note the
number of the line you wish to replace, then enter "R999" where "999" is the
line you wish to replace.
"I999"
This command allows you to insert a new line of text into your message.
First list (L) the message and note the number of the line, before which you
wish the new line to appear. Then enter "I999" where "999" is the number of
the line before which you wish to insert your new line of text.
"D999"
This command allows you to delete one line at a time from your message.
First list (L) your message and note the number of the line you wish to
delete. Then enter "D999" where "999" is the line number you wish to
delete. Bulletron will display the line and delete it.
NOTE: Each time you insert or delete a line, the line numbers will
adjust to accommodate the change. It is important that you list
(L) the message each time BEFORE you insert or delete a line, to
make certain of the correct line number. When deleting several
lines start with the last line you wish to delete and work back
to the first line you wish to delete.
"C"
This command allows you to continue the message. The additional text is
appended to the end of the order form.
"S"
This command SENDS your order to the system operator.
"SR"
This command sends the order like "S" above, but when the system
operator reads it, Bulletron generates a message RECEIPT, to you, telling
you when it was read and if it was deleted.
"Q"
This command allows you to cancel the order just entered, and returns
you to the main system prompt.
