&10&Powerboard Ver %VER% &11&Message Entry Help
&7&While entering a message, there are many options that are available to you.
If you are accessing this system with an ansi terminal, you will have the
ability to move around the message text with your cursor keys to correct
spelling errors.
Another feature that Powerboard %ver% provides is the ability to make
different words different colors in your message. Again, you must be
calling from an ansi terminal for this feature. If you are calling from
an ascii (non-ansi) terminal, you will have the ability to enter the
color codes, however, you will not be able to see the color changes.
Colors available include foreground and background colors. Foreground
colors are 0 through 15, 0-7 being low intensity colors and 8-15
high intensity. To put a color code in your message, you must first
put in an & (ampersand) symbol, then the color number, then another
ampersand symbol.
With background colors, the color change code is a $ (dollar sign). You
must type the $, then the color number (0-7), then another $.
