Time, frustration, and therefore $$$ may be saved if you choose to take
advantage of the COMMAND mode of operations. As stated on page 10 of the
GEnie User's Manual "This command turns off the menus and puts you in an
advanced mode." The "old" GEnie User's Guide stated "However, IT IS NOT
FOR FIRST TIME USERS because you won't see any menus or information."
The purpose of this file is to enable you to use COMMAND mode with
greater ease by providing a handy reference of the key menus needed by most
of the Forth RoundTable users. This file, including everything below the
dashed line ONLY, is designed to print out exactly one full page - fold the
paper in quarters after printing and you'll have a quick reference prompt
sheet. Set up printer with print head at top of page, Elite font, left margin
setting of 5 and page width of 95. With this helpful reference,
type C at the following prompt (which is on most menus):
Enter #,
revious, or elp?
That will place you in COMMAND mode from which ALL of the regular commands
may be used, but you'll see only the page number prompt, like: P 710?
As of 18 Nov 1988 this is especially useful since GEnie now remembers you
use the (C)ommand mode. To return to full menus simply type another C
