- Welcome to JLBlink
-
- JLBlink is designed to help you get the most out of the time you spend
- with BIX. It does this by automating a large portion of your BIX sessions
- with blink scripts. The blink scripts necessary to log on and off BIX via
- Tymnet or direct, and to download messages and mail come with JLBlink. It
- generates all the blink scripts necessary to upload messages and mail. In
- addition, with one single command execution, JLBlink will log on BIX,
- download all your new messages and memos, upload all new messages and
- memos that you have composed, and then log off BIX, with no required
- interaction from you.
-
- JLBlink also builds your own BIX Data Base from the messages and memos you
- receive from BIX. It automatically builds and updates an index of new
- messages and mail, which gives you the ability to read the messages, at
- your convenience, in the order you want.

- The Communication Link
-
- JLBlink comes equipped with an intelligent Communication Link to help you
- send and receive files (messages and memos) to and from BIX. The
- Communication Link is designed specifically to interface with BIX in an
- efficient and easy manner. The Communication Link provides all the tools
- necessary to interface with BIX either fully automatic, semi-automatic, or
- manually.
-
- The process the Communication Link uses to interface with BIX is known as
- "Blinking". The process of blinking is used to get on- and off-line as
- quickly as possible. Blinking is an efficient method to interface with
- BIX because it not only reduces the amount of time that you stay on-line,
- it also reduces the total amount of characters that are transmitted and
- received during a typical session.

- The Editor
-
- JLBlink integrates a versatile screen oriented Editor into its Post
- commands to help you compose and edit the messages and memos that you wish
- to send to BIX. You can import text into the Editor, and also use it
- while on-line with BIX. You can even have each message "signed"
- automatically.
