A COMMON mistake that MANY users have been making is that ALL COMMANDS are NOT case sensitive. That is, you can use either upper or lower case characters. The ONLY thing that is case sensitive are the file names used in downloading and uploading. Like all other BBS software, both upper and lower cases can be used in any of the menus or options. Another option, which is neglected, is the capability of stacking a directory number to the A(rea change) option from within the message and file sections. Basically, you do not have to list out the list of directories, unless you want to. If you know that you want to switch to directory 3, all you have to type is 'a 3' ( note: the ' characters were added only for clarification ). Actually, any of the following combinations will work: 'a 3' 'a3' 'a;3' or and non-numeric character between the a and the 3! Sandy
