--- Some helpful hints on commands.
You do not have to enter the entire command word. The commands are
arranged alphabetically, so you just need to enter enough letters to
distiguish it from another command. For instance, the command
/WHISPER can be shorten to just /W, but the command /LIST can only be
shorted to /LIS or it will be confused with command /LINE which comes
first alphabetically.
Also if the command requires that you enter something (like a node
number), you can enter it on the same line as the command instead of
waiting for SabreChat! to ask you. For example the /PAGE command
requires that you enter the node number you wish to page. Instead of
waiting for it to ask you for the node number you may enter "/P 2" to
page node two.
--- Extended Help on Commands.
/ACTION
This command lists all of the available action commands. You
can use the action command just by typing it on a blank line and
then pressing ENTER.
/BYE, /X, /EXIT, /Q
These commands allow you to leave SabreChat!
/COLORS
This command toggles the format SabreChat! uses to produce
colors, usually this does not need to be changed because it will
be automatically set to the format you are using in the BBS.
/EXPEL
Removes a user from a non-PUBLIC room. This command only works
for the owner of a room.
/GRANT
Grants ownership to another user in the room. This command only
works for the onwer of a room.
/IGNORE
This command turns on and off your ability to receive whispers.
This prevents people from irritating people in private rooms.
/JOIN
This commands lets you join an existing room/conference or to
create a new room. You can create a private room by adding the
character '/' to the front of the name (like /GIRLS). The only
way that someone can enter a private room is if they know the
name.
/LINE
This command turns on and off line-by-line chat. In
line-by-line chat, the person that you are talking to will
receive your words after each line. When line by line mode is
turned off, then they will receive each letter you type as you
type them.
/ONLINE
This command gives you a list of everybody who is on the BBS and
where they are.
/PAGE
This command allows you to page someone who is on the BBS but is
not in SabreChat!.
/PROMPT
This command toggles thru three different prompts. The prompt
is the SG> or --SHAWN GRESHAM-- that appears as that person
begins typing.
/TIME
This command gives you the time and the time remaining.
/WHISPER
This command allows you to send a private message to someone
else in SabreChat!. They do not have to be in the same room as
you.
