- Welcome to the World of Citadel BBSs. There are many things you need to
- know over time, but here are the basics: The BBS is a chain of rooms. It
- is set up so that you can type simple commands with a great varity.
- These commands are:
- G(oto) - Will "goto" a room with New unread messages.
- N(ew) - Will read the new messages in the present room
- P(ause) - Pauses the Message Display
- S(top) - Stops the Message Display
- U(ngoto) - Backs up to the last room
- T(erminate) - Logs off
- D(oor) - Will bring up a list of Availible doors
- E(nter) - Allows you to enter a message in a room
-
- .RE - Make sure the period is in there. It displays the files
- in the current room, if the room is a directory room.
- .RYB - Will download a file with Ymodem, substitute
- X for Xmodem, K for Kermit.
- .EYF - Same as above, but upload a file instead of downloading.
-
- Those are the basic commands, and everything you need to get started. To
- leave the sysop mail, type in the following carefully: ".G Mail" to move to
- the mail room. "E" to enter a message, and then either "Tony Preston" or
- "Sysop" to enter a message to sysop. Enter the message, and then hit
- the RETURN key two times to bring a message command prompt up. "S" will
- save the message.
