- Tagging files is one of the most used features in Terminate. It will save
- you hundreds of small little notes and allow you to start downloading files
- faster. The Alt-F5 filetagger will try to identify all possible filenames
- on screen, then, when you move the cursor up or down, the menubar will jump
- to the next file it has identified.
-

-
- When you press escape all tagged files are saved and can now be reached from
- the tag menu. You can also check an entire file list quickly and then
- scrollback with ^bAlt-B^n and tag files from there. Remember that no online
- remote tagger will react as quickly as doing the tagging locally.
-
- ^hTag menu^n
-
- The tag menu will work a little differently depending on if you use the
- menu from Alt-F6 (download) or Alt-F7 and filerequest.

-
- The 'Tagged files' indicates the total of tagged entries.
- The 'Tagged from:' will show on which system you tagged the file. If you
- change phonebooks it will not show the correct system. The phonebook has
- to be loaded to see where you have tagged the files. Call a system or
- press Alt-D, Esc to load the phonebook.
-
- ^hA Edit tagfile^n
-
- Edit any tag file with the external editor. If you have called a system,
- Terminate will suggest a filename that looks like the system name, but
- actually you can edit any file from here.
-
- ^hC Clear all^n
-
- Clean the screen and throw away all files that you have tagged.
-
- ^hD Delete (■)^n
-
- When you send the filename back with one of the functions here, you can
- clean up the screen. This is useful if you have tagged 50 or more files
- and have collected the first 10.
-
- ^hL Load tagfile^n
-
- Load any textfile into the tag menu. The first word will be grabbed
- from each line.
-
- ^hS Save tagfile^n
-
- If you suddenly need to save the tagged files. Lets say you are online and
- have just tagged 20-30 files and suddenly your mum arrives and you have
- again forgotten the time because of those damn computers, now you just save
- the tagfile and when she has left again, you load the tagged files again
- and call the system and download the rest of the files.
-
- ^hE Edit entry^n
-
- Edit manually the entries on screen.
-
- ^hI Import dir^n
-
- You can import a local directory with all the files.
- This option could be useful when uploading, if you have a directory with a
- lot of files you want to upload to a system, you might be asked to enter
- the names first with the remote system checking if the file is already
- present on the remote system.
-
- ^hF Filelist^n
-
- The menu will handle all the filelist features in Terminate.
- A filelist is a large (ASCII) text file. Such lists can be downloaded
- from almost anywhere, no matter which kind of system you are using.
- Look at the example DANBBS.TXT file in the FILELIST\ directory if you
- have any doubts about what a filelist could look like.
- Remember that whenever you use the internal viewer on a filelist
- or any other file for that matter that contains filenames, you can tag
- the files by pressing T and then the filenames are imported into
- the Tagmenu.
-
- You can also change the setup in Alt-O, F, Filelist manager.

-
- This function will quickly and easily search through all your filelists
- for a wildcard like ????TER1.* (Terminate) or T-???-??.* (manuals). A
- wildcard search is enabled if your search string contains a * or a ?,
- otherwise a normal search on your full search string is performed.

- ^hView filelist^n
-
- Quick select and view of one filelist.
-
- ^hTag from list^n
-
- You can tag directly from filelists. First you will be asked to select a
- filelist. Then 'keyword or wildcard'. If you enter a normal DOS
- wildcard filename like '*.ZIP' all lines will be searched for a .ZIP file,
- but if you do not enter a wildcard each line in the filelist will be
- searched for matches. So, if you enter VGA, all lines having the word 'VGA'
- will be available. The limit is 250 matches. The list can be sorted
- alphabetically if you like. You can now select from the found matches. Just
- mark all the files you want with ^hSPACE^n or press ^h+^n for marking all files
- found. ^h-^n will unmark all and ^h*^n will toggle all tags. When pressing Esc
- all files tagged will now be imported into the tag menu (if there is room
- for them).
- The tagged lines will also be saved in the download path (or inbound) in a
- file called FILES.BBS so you have the descriptions. Thus, you will not need
- the BBS to send you an extra file with the descriptions (if the system does
- it anyway, just delete the file.)
- With this option you will never need to spend much online time looking for
- new files. If you have a high speed modem, just download the filelist,
- search it manually and tag all the files off-line. Then dial the system
- and use the tag menu to select the files.
-
- ^hPack filelists^n
-
- Pack all the files in the filelist directory into LISTPACK.ZIP, if you
- define another packer like ARJ then LISTPACK.ARJ will be used.
-
- ^hUnpack filelists^n
-
- Unpack all the files in the packed LISTPACK.ZIP. All the list functions
- will look for LISTPACK and ask if you want to unpack the files first.
-
- ^hFilemanager^n
-
- Start up filemanager in the filelist directory for manual processing.
-
- ^hM Magic^n
-
- Magic names is a commonly used term in fidonet and means the same as alias.
- In this way, some systems have aliases for some special files that can be
- requested from the system.
-
- ^hG GenTag^n
-
- Call any external utility you like. Normally this should point to a utility
- that could generate a TERMINAT.TAG file that could be imported here.
-
- ^hB Sort^n
-
- Sort all entries alphabetically.
-
- ^hU UnTag^n
-
- Untag the file.
-
- ^hDel Remove entry^n
-
- Delete the tagged file.
-
- ^h■=Sent / ■=Request^n
-
- Depending on if you called the tagmenu with ^hAlt-F6^n or when file
- requesting from ^hAlt-F7^n, the tagged files have different meanings.
- Download: ■ means that you have already tried to download the file once.
- Request : ■ means that this file should be requested.
-
- ^hSpace / Return^n
-
- Download: Send name + Space/Return (ASCII #32/#13). Some systems allow you
- to enter several filenames on the same line. Let's say you have 3 files you
- want to download. First press space on the two first files and then press
- return on the last file: 'FILE1.EXT FILE2.EXT FILE3.EXT'+return.
- Just as if you typed the line yourself.
-
- Request: When you edit an entry the ■ means: YES! request this file,
- please. You can toggle this entry with the spacebar if you suddenly decide
- you don't want the file anyway. Press return when you are finished tagging
- files. If you do not want to request anyway just press Esc.
-
- ^h+ All+13 - All+32 / +-* Toggle all^n
-
- Download: Pressing ^h+^n will send all the filenames separated by a return
- (#13). ^h-^n will do the same thing, but separated with a space (#32) instead.
-
- Request: ^h+^n will select all files to be requested. ^h-^n will deselect all the
- files and ^h*^n will toggle all files.
