| | ===== FP ===== |
| | <code>FP(4) XROUTER REFERENCE MANUAL 29/3/2024 |
| | |
| | </code> **COMMAND** <code> |
| | FP -- Force Polling. |
| | |
| | </code> **SYNOPSIS** <code> |
| | FP [mailbox_callsign] |
| | |
| | </code> **DESCRIPTION** <code> |
| | The FP (Force Polling) command starts a "polling run", even |
| | when one is not due. |
| | |
| | A "polling run" is one pass through the "forwarding file" |
| | (FWD.SYS). For each mailbox in the forwarding file which has |
| | the "P" option and a valid date and time, the associated |
| | connection script is executed and reverse forwarding is |
| | requested. |
| | |
| | Polling is used when the peer mailbox is unable to make |
| | outgoing connections to this mailbox, for example to poll a |
| | TNC-based PMS. |
| | |
| | Forwarding/polling runs are normally started every 15 minutes |
| | (configurable by "ForwardInterval" directive in PMS.CFG), |
| | when there is no outgoing mail. |
| | |
| | If a polling run ends prematurely, e.g. due to a connection |
| | failure, the FF command can be used to start a new one |
| | immediately, instead of waiting 15 minutes. |
| | |
| | </code> **OPTIONS** <code> |
| | If the optional [mailbox_callsign] is supplied, the run is |
| | restricted to that peer mailbox only. |

| | ===== HOLD ===== |
| | <code>HOLD(4) XROUTER REFERENCE MANUAL 6/9/2023 |
| | |
| | </code> **COMMAND** <code> |
| | HOLD -- Hold Message For Review. |
| | |
| | </code> **SYNOPSIS** <code> |
| | HO[ld] <message_number> |
| | |
| | </code> **DESCRIPTION** <code> |
| | The HOLD command "holds" a message for review, i.e. makes it |
| | invisible to users and prevents it from being forwarded. |
| | |
| | The message can then be edited and released, or action can be |
| | deferred until time allows. |
| | |
| | It is not a particularly useful command, because by the time |
| | the message comes to the sysop's attention it will probably |
| | already have been forwarded. But that's then someone else's |
| | problem! |
| | |
| | It does allow you to remove the message and save it for |
| | evidence instead of simply deleting it. |
| | |
| | Apart from unwanted or abusive content, another reason to |
| | hold mail is if it needs to be readdressed, or if it for any |
| | other reason it fails to forward, holding up the queue. |
| | |
| | "Held" messages have the status "H". They can be listed using |
| | the LH (List Held) command, deleted using the KH (Kill Held) |
| | command, or released using the UH (Un-Hold) command. |
| | |
| | Messages may be automatically held by entries in the HOLD.SYS |
| | BADWORD.SYS and MSGFILT.SYS files. |
| | |
| | </code> **EXAMPLE** <code> |

| | L[ist] <first_number> |
| | L[ist] <first_number> <last_number> |
| | |
| | |
| | </code> **DESCRIPTION** <code> |
| | The LIST command, which may be abbreviated to "L", is used to |
| | list messages by number. |
| | |
| | Each message has a unique "index" number on this BBS. The |
| | number is not part of the messsage "envelope", although it |
| | is displayed as if it were so. The same message on a different |
| | mailbox would have a different number. |
| | |
| | The mailbox can be configured to re-number the messages from |
| | time to time, to keep the mumbers within a manageable range. |
| | |
| | </code> **OPTIONS** <code> |
| | L[ist] by itself lists messages that have arrived since you |
| | last used the L command, which may be none. |
| | |
| | A single numeric argument specifies a starting number, from |
| | which the listing will proceed in a forwards direction. |
| | |
| | If two numeric arguments are supplied, the first specifies |
| | the starting mumber and the second specifies the last number |

| | ===== MAN ===== |
| | <code>MAN(4) XROUTER REFERENCE MANUAL 29/3/2024 |
| | |
| | </code> **COMMAND** <code> |
| | MAN -- Display Sysop's Manual Pages. |
| | |
| | </code> **SYNOPSIS** <code> |
| | MAN [section] [topic] |
| | |
| | </code> **DESCRIPTION** <code> |
| | The MAN command is used to access the sysop's manual, which |
| | consists of a collection of pages, each covering a different |
| | command or topic. |
| | |
| | The MAN pages are designed for sysop use, and usually give |
| | more detail than the corresponding HELP pages. |
| | |
| | The manual is divided into several sections as follows: |
| | |
| | Section Contents |
| | ------------------------------------------ |
| | 1 General Commands |
| | 2 Chat Server Commands |
| | 3 PZTDOS commands |
| | 4 Mailbox commands |
| | 6 Installation & Configuration Topics |
| | 7 Configuration Directives |
| | 8 Configuration / System Files. |
| | 9 Miscellaneous Topics |
| | |
| | When used from the mailbox command line, MAN by default shows |
| | only the pages in section 4. Pages from other sections may be |
| | displayed using the [section] argument. |
| | |
| | </code> **OPTIONS** <code> |
| | Use MAN SECTIONS to list the sections. |
| | |
| | Entering MAN alone displays a list of available topics in |
| | section 4. |
| | |
| | To read a specific page in section 4, enter MAN followed by |
| | the topic for which you require help. |
| | |
| | To list topics in any other section, enter MAN followed by the |
| | section number. |
| | |
| | To read a topic in a section other than 4, enter MAN followed |
| | by a space, the section number, a space then the topic. |
| | |
| | If a topic name contains wildcards, all matching topic names |
| | in the section are displayed. |
| | |
| | </code> **EXAMPLES** <code> |
| | MAN LC Display section 4 page for LC command. |
| | MAN 7 List the topics in section 7 |
| | MAN 7 MAXTT Display section 7 page for MAXTT directive |
| | MAN 1 I* List section 1 topics begining with 'I' |
| | |
| | </code> **CONVENTIONS** <code> |
| | The following conventions are used in MAN pages: |
| | |
| | < > Mandatory argument - These braces and the text |
| | enclosed within them represent any piece of text |
| | typed after the command. The <> do not form part |
| | of the argument. |
| | |
| | [ ] Optional argument - These braces enclose anything |
| | which is not always present. If used within a |
| | command name (e.g. N[ODES]), this indicates that |
| | the command may be abbreviated to a minimum form |
| | while remaining unique. |
| | |
| | </code> **AVAILABILITY** <code> |
| | Sysop-only. |
| | |
| | </code> **FILES** <code> |
| | Manual files are normal text files, with the extension |
| | changed to ".MAN". They may be created and edited using a |
| | simple text editor such as Notepad (windows) or Leafpad, nano |
| | etc (Linux). |
| | |
| | All MAN files are located within the MAN directory, which |
| | itself is in the directory containing XRouter. |
| | |
| | As MAN files are for use only by the sysop, there is no need |
| | for separate directories for alternate language versions. |
| | Even if the MAN files are translated to a different language, |
| | they must always be situated in the MAN directory, not in a |
| | subdirectory thereof |
| | |
| | Filenames, including the extensions, MUST be in UPPER CASE. |
| | Lower case filenames and files without the .MAN extension are |
| | ignored. |
| | |
| | Within the .MAN files, lines beginning with a semicolon ';' |
| | are not displayed, so you can use them for comments, such as |
| | file modification details. |
| | |
| | Manual files can be viewed from the console using <ALT+H> |
| | followed by <M>. This browser window is only around 76 |
| | characters wide, so try to keep the lines shorter than this, |
| | to preserve formatting. In any case, lines longer than 72 |
| | characters are bad practice, typopgraphically-speaking. |
| | |
| | </code> **LIMITATIONS** <code> |
| | Although most commands may be abbreviated, it is not currently |
| | possible for the MAN command to correctly identify the |
| | required page from an abbreviated argument. Thus "MAN IMPORT" |
| | is acceptable, whereas "MAN IM" is not. Use wildcards if |
| | necessary. |
| | |
| | </code> **NOTE** <code> |
| | Some manual pages are longer than the standard console review |
| | buffer size, and may therefore display only the last 400 or |
| | so lines. However they can be viewed in full via the HTTP |
| | interface, and by using <ALT+H> followed by <M> at the |
| | console. |

| | SB -- Send Bulletin. |
| | |
| | </code> **SYNOPSIS** <code> |
| | SB <topic> [ @ <area> ] |
| | |
| | </code> **DESCRIPTION** <code> |
| | The SB (Send Bulletin) command is used to send a "bulletin", |
| | i.e. a message which can be read by anyone. |
| | |
| | </code> **OPTIONS** <code> |
| | The non-optional <topic> field targets the bulletin at an |
| | intended audience, and can consist of any word, up to 6 |
| | characters maximum, e.g. ALL IBM HELP TCPIP etc. Please |
| | use a meaningful <topic> field if possible. |
| | |
| | The optional [ @ <area> ] bit specifies the "target area" or |
| | "distribution area" for the bulletin. If a distribution area |
| | is specified, the bulletin is delivered to all other |
| | mailboxes within the specified area, otherwise the bulletin |
| | stays on this mailbox only. |
| | |
| | The <area> or "at" field should consist of an area code that |
| | is known to other sysops, otherwise they won't know where to |
| | send it. Examples are: |
| | |
| | WMIDS - West midlands mailboxes |
| | FOURP - Mailboxes in the Fourpak area |
| | GBR - All mailboxes in Great Britain |
| | EU - All mailboxes in Europe (includes GBR) |
| | WW - All mailboxes in the world. |
| | |
| | Please try to target your bulletin to the minimum area |
| | necessary. A bulletin advertising your local club night |
| | doesn't need to go worldwide! |
| | |
| | </code> **EXAMPLES** <code> |
| | SB KRG - Bull about local KRG club meeting |
| | SB IBM @ WMIDS - Bull about IBM to west mids mailboxes. |
| | SB HELP @ GBR - Ask everyone in Great Britain for help. |

| TYPE [path/]<filename> | SP <to> [ @ <at> ] |
| | |
| | </code> **DESCRIPTION** <code> |
| | The SP (Send Personal) command is used to send a personal |
| | message, i.e. one which is targeted at a single individual. |
| | |
| | </code> **OPTIONS** <code> |
| | The <to> field must contain the recipient's callsign. |
| | |
| | The <at> field is semi-optional, and consists of the callsign |
| | of the recipient's "home BBS", plus other routing information |
| | where necessary. |
| | |
| | This mailbox contains a database of known active mail users, |
| | called the "White Pages", or WP for short. If the recipient's |
| | callsign is known to WP there is no need to enter the <at> |
| | field, as the White Pages will automatically supply it. |
| | |
| | If you enter an incomplete address, the WP attempts to extend |
| | it into a full "Hierarchical Address (HA), but if you enter a |
| | full address, WP assumes you know best, and does not |
| | intervene. Therefore if you do supply a complete address, |
| | make sure it is EXACTLY right, or your mail may get lost. |
| | |
| | If you're sending a message to another user of this mailbox, |
| | you needn't enter the <at> field. |
| | |
| | If you're sending a message to a user of another mailbox, you |
| | only need to supply an address if the WP doesn't know the |
| | recipient. |
| | |
| | If in doubt, use the "I <callsign>" command to check if the |
| | recipient is in the WP database. |
| | |
| | </code> **EXAMPLES** <code> |
| | SP G8PZT <-- No address supplied. WP will supply it |
| | if recipient is known to WP. |
| | |
| | SP G8PZT @ GB7PZT <-- Partial address supplied. WP will |
| | attempt to extend it. |
| | |
| | SP G8PZT @ GB7PZT.#24.GBR.EU <-- Full address supplied. |

| | |
| | It is advisable wherever possible to use the "SR" command in |
| | preference to "SP", to reduce addressing errors. |
| | |
| | </code> **OPTIONS** <code> |
| | The optional [msgnum] argument specifies the original message |
| | which is being replied to. |
| | |
| | If [msgnum] is not supplied, the reply relates to the message |
| | most recently read by the user in the current session. In |
| | this case it is best to use SR immediately after reading a |
| | message, because some commands can cause the mailbox to |
| | "forget" the last message that was read. |

| | Attempting to un-hold a non-held message has no effect. |
| | |

| | The UNREAD command, which may be shortened to U, "un-reads" a |
