- C86Net Shared Rooms
- -------------------
- ^variantname can network (also known as 'Share') designated rooms.
- Shared rooms can be identified by their room prompts, which differ from
- the normal room prompts ('>', ']'); networked room prompts are ')' for normal
- network rooms, and ':' for directory network rooms.
-
- Network rooms carry both normal messages and network messages. Normal
- messages are entered as they are in any other room, and will remain on the
- system that they were entered on. Net messages, on the other hand, are not
- only present on the current system, but also are sent during networking to
- other systems that are participating in the networking effort for this room.
- The basic format for entering a NETWORK MESSAGE is
-
- .<E>nter <N>etwork-Message
-
- Then you are allowed to enter your message (supposing that you have network
- privileges). The message header will have attached to it "@<this system name>"
- to let you and everyone else know that this is a net-message.
-
- There is a Read option connected with the Network, the Local-only option.
-
- .<R>ead <L>ocal ...
-
- causes the system to display only those messages which originated on
- ^nodetitle. See .Help READ for a little more detail on the .Read command.
