Holding messages
----------------
The <H>eld option of the 'entry cmd:' prompt allows you to put the message
you are working on in a temporary buffer and returns you to the roomname>
prompt (unless you are using Pause-Enter -- see FLOW.HLP). You may
then continue to use ^variantname as you normally would, which in this
case would probably be to review earlier messages so that the
message that you've <H>eld can be more incisive; or to change rooms
if you feel the message should be elsewhere. Only one message can be held
at a time.
To continue a message in the held buffer, type:
.Enter Held-Message
If you should involuntarily lose carrier while composing a message, the
system will save your message in your held message buffer and return it to
you when you call back in.
%FLOW Message display controls (see Pause-Enter).
%COMMANDS Back to the commands help menu.
%HELPOPT Get a list of all help files in the system.
%MAINHELP First level of help system.
