│ Detailed Description Update Scan/Read Conference Selection │
└───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
This option is used to specify which conferences are to be checked when
mail is read or scanned using the [S]elected conferences option. Since
WILDCAT! has the ability to have 100's of different conferences, you
usually don't want to spend time searching for or reading messages in
conferences you're not interested in. So this option is used to select
which conferences to scan thru. When this command is selected, a screen
appears listing the conferences available for your security level similar
to the following:
0) * General Message Area 1) * Games Comments/Info
2) * DOS Commands & Info 3) * Classifieds Buy & Sell
4) * Technical Information 5) * Printer Tech Info
6) SysOp to SysOp Area 7) * BBS Advertisements
8) * Commercial Software Info 9) * Uploaded File Reviews
10) Comments to the SysOp 11) * NetMail BBS/BBS Direct
-Pause- [#-#], Select [A]ll, [D]eselect all, [H]elp, [S]top?
The above display indicates that you have access to 12 conferences, and
that you scan and read from 10 of them (marked with the *) when the
[S]elected conferences command is used.
You may modify your default conferences by entering the number of the
conference to change. Entering a conference number toggles the status
to selected * or not selected depending on it's present state. Below is
a description of the available commands.
[#-#] -
You can select a specific conference number, or a range of
conferences to update for Scan/Read. For a range of conferences,
type the number of the conference you would like to start with and
then type the dash - and then enter the number of the conference
to end with. This method will select all conferences between the
two numbers inclusively. ie. [2-5] will select conferences 2, 3,
4 and 5. An * will appear next to all the conferences that have
been selected.
Select [A]ll -
This selection will select all conferences. You will notice that
the * will appear next to all the conference numbers selected.
[D]eselect all -
This selection will deselect all conferences. You will notice
that the * next to the previously selected conferences will
disappear.
[H]elp -
Displays this Help screen.
[S]top -
Ends the conference selection and/or deselection process and
returns to the Message Menu.
