-         /A[nnouncements]    Show announcements
-         /B[ulletins]        Show bulletins
-         /C[ancel] [#]       List / cancel unacked message(s)

-         /H[elp] [cmd]       Display command help
-         /Monitor [on|off]   Query / set traffic Monitor mode
-         /Q[uit]             Quit (exit)
-         /T[arget] [call]    Query / set target for msg
-         /U[iview] [on|off]  Query / set UI-View mode
-         /V[ia] [digis]      Query / set digipeater path
-         /X                  Exit

-For a full list of help topics enter "/H *"
