directory, select (Y).  If not, select (N).  Regardless of your
selection, the directory will be cleared and all files deleted

INITIALS WITH QUOTED TEXT
SPEED offers three different styles of quoting messages, dependent
upon how initials are used; First, All and None.  Press the space
bar to toggle through the choices.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
FIRST
 JS> This is an example of "First".  Notice that the initials are
   > only displayed on the first quoted line of each paragraph.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
ALL    (*ALL will quote blank lines also)
 JS> This is an example of the "All" option.  It displays initials
 JS> on every quoted line.  This is the most used style.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
NONE   (*NONE will quote blank lines also)
 > "None" does not use any initials.  This can be very confusing
 > when there are several quotes from different people.

QUOTE STRING
The quote string is the text placed between the initials (if any)
and the message text.  The most common character used is the '>'
symbol.  Please note, you should be careful when choosing a quote
string.  Some networks (such as FidoNet) do not allow high-bit
characters (those greater than 127) and control characters (those
less than 32).  If in doubt stick with '>', it is acceptable on all
networks. *NEVER USE VALUE 227 'π', THIS IS A QWK CONTROL CHARACTER*
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
High-bit and control characters are entered by holding down the
(ALT) key and entering the desired character's ASCII value using
the numeric key pad.  For example, to generate the '■' character,
press the (ALT) key, enter 254 on the numeric keypad and then
release the (ALT) key.  For a complete list of available values
please refer to an ASCII table located in most computer manuals.
Presented below are some of the more commonly used values.

manager.  You may include wildcards ('*' and '?'), if necessary.

SWAP SPEED TO MEMORY OR DISK
When this option is toggled On (SPAWNO or SWAP), SPEED is moved out
of conventional memory before external programs (such as your
editor, compressor, etc.) are executed.  This frees more memory for
the external program.  SPEED will attempt to swap itself to high
memory first, then to disk if there is not enough memory.  SPAWNO
and SWAP are two different swapping routines.  If one doesn't work,
try the other.  Toggle this option by pressing the space bar.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The advantage to swapping, as stated above, is the increased memory
capacity afforded the external program.  However, it will take
longer to execute the program because of the time needed to remove
SPEED from conventional memory.  Disk swaps will take longer than
memory swaps.  Therefore, if your applications will run without
swapping, it is to your advantage to leave this option toggled Off.

SNOW CONTROL
SPEED uses direct screen writes to display text. This is much faster
than other available methods.  However, on some older CGA video
cards this produces a "snow" effect when the screen is updated.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
If you see "snow" while using SPEED, toggle this option to On.  If
your CGA card does not produce "snow" toggle this Off to get faster
screen writes.  Since snow is only associated with CGA video cards,
this option should be Off if your system uses any other card.

indexed and stored in the order they are received.  If any option is
selected other than "No Sort", then the messages in the selected
conference are sorted each time the conference is entered, and
unsorted before the index is updated.

SYMBOLIC LANGUAGE
Some languages (such as Chinese and Japanese) use a symbolic
character set instead of an alphabet.  These languages make
extensive use of high-bit characters to extend the number of
available characters.  SPEED uses the high-bit characters to draw
lines and boxes.  This can produce a confusing display.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
This toggle converts high-bit line drawing characters to comparable
low-bit characters, in selected places.  Also when this toggle is on
SPEED excludes high-bit characters when determining a quote.

exceeds the amount of free disk space on the work drive, then the
current disk drive will be used to uncompress the message base

VIRTUAL MEMORY SWAP FILE
When SPEED is set to use virtual memory with the Swap File Megs
option, it creates a file in the SPEED directory called $VIRMEM.SWP.
This option allows you to define whether this file is permanent or
if it is created each time SPEED is run.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The advantage to leaving this option "On" is it guarantees there
will always be sufficient disk space for the swap file.  Also SPEED
will startup slightly faster when it doesn't have to create the swap
file, though the speed difference is negligible on newer equipment.
The obvious disadvantage of setting this option to "On" is the loss
of disk space when SPEED is not running.

TWIT FILTER
A twit filter allows you to screen the messages you see.  When SPEED
reads an area's index it compares the message's To:, From: and Subj:
fields with the entries in the twit list.  If a match is found, the
message is marked as a twit.  SPEED will not display twitted
messages, thereby screening out unwanted messages to or from an
individual, or with a particular subject.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
SPEED always tries to skip twitted messages.  However, sometimes
this is impossible (e.g. if all the messages are twitted).  If SPEED
cannot skip a twitted message, for whatever reason, it will display
a blank message with "*TWIT*" in the header fields and a box in the
message area letting you know the message is a twit.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
To enter items in the twit list, press (ALT-L) for the picklist
listing, then select "Twits" from the list.  The Twit Filter option
must be set to "On" for the twit filter to function.  To do so press

contain only one tear line.  That is the line with "---" above the
tagline.  If you leave messages on a FidoNet BBS, you MUST use

READ MESSAGES - General Information
This screen's main purpose is to read and reply to messages.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The screen is divided into three parts: a header section, message
window and a footer bar.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
        Header - This provides you with useful information about the
                 displayed message.
Message Window - The actual text of the message.
    Footer Bar - This provides you additional information such as
                 the number of unread messages, lines, etc.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
There are many commands available while reading messages.  See the
previous screen for a short summary of those commands.

       To - To whom the message is addressed (sent).
  Subject - Short summary of the message's content.
   Number - The message number on *THIS* BBS.  Networked messages
            have different numbers on each BBS that receives them.
    Refer - Original message to which displayed message refers.
 Board ID - A short, unique identification for the active BBS.
     Conf - The conference/area in which this message was posted.
    Flags - "*KILL*" message marked to be deleted, "Keep" message
            marked to be retained, "MARKED" bulk marked message.
 ## of ## - SPEED's message number & total number of messages.
    Reply - If you have replied to the displayed message, the date
            of that reply is displayed in this field.

REQUEST ATTACHED FILE
Some doors support attaching files to messages.  Files attached
to messages via eSoft's QSO are flagged with a blinking asterisk
in the upper-left corner of the message header.  Also, the last
line of the message will contain the name of the attached file.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
If the attached files are not automatically sent, you can request
them within SPEED by pressing (F5) while viewing a message with an
attached file.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
(F5) generates a special reply message for the mail door.  It is
addressed to QMAIL and the subject is REQUEST ###, where ### is the
message number that contains an attached file.  When the reply is
uploaded, the mail door will include the requested files in the next
packet downloaded.  SPEED will automatically copy the files to your
download directory, as defined in your configuration.

FORWARD MESSAGE
The Forward Message command (CTRL-F) allows you to redirect a
message to another person.  This is especially useful if the other
person does not follow the conference where the message originated.
By default, a header is added to let the user know the message was
forwarded, when the original message was written and the original
people involved.  The forwarded message announcement is stored in
the file FORWARD.SR and can be customized.

WRAP LONG LINES
Certain mail software incorrectly prepares messages with entire
paragraphs on a single line.  (CTRL-W) allows you to wrap these long
lines for easier reading.  This command toggles between wrapping
long lines and displaying them as sent in the mail packet.  When in
the wrapping mode lines are terminated at the first space beyond the
70th character.

DISPLAY ANSI MESSAGE
Some messages contain special codes that allow the message to
display color and perform animation.  These messages are easily
identified because of their abundance of special escape sequences.
Escape sequences begin with the characters [ and ·[.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
To display an ANSI message press (A).  To use the scrollable ANSI
viewer press (ALT-A).  For these functions to operate you must
included ANSI.SYS in your CONFIG.SYS file.  For more information on
using ANSI.SYS and CONFIG.SYS, please refer to your DOS manual.

SORT MESSAGES
Sometimes it is convenient to view messages in an order different
than SPEED normally stores them.  There are five sort options
available for your use.  They are: No Sort, Sort by Number, From,
To and Subject.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Since messages are deleted on a First-In-First-Out (FIFO) basis, it
is necessary to store the message base index in the order they were
received from the BBS.  Therefore, before an updated index is
written to disk it is sorted with the "No Sort" option.

ENTER
The (ENTER) key, or carriage return ┘ as it is also known, is used
to move to the next unread message.  If all messages have been read,
it is used to move to the next message in the last packet.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Pressing (ENTER) on the last message in the current conference moves
you to the next conference with unread mail.  The first unread
message is displayed, just as if the conference were selected from
the areas list.  If the remaining conferences do not contain any
unread mail you are returned to the areas list.

REFER THREADING
One of the strengths of an offline message base is its ability to
trace message threads (specific conversations) back to their origin.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
([)  Chain back to the referenced message.  If the displayed message
     shows a number in the "Refer" field, and the referenced message
     is in the message base, ([) will allow you to instantly view
     it.  You can continue to step back like this, up to 100
     messages.  (<) performs the same function.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
(])  Chain forward or reverse the sequence of the ([) key.  As you
     step back with the ([) key SPEED remembers the path you took.
     Pressing (]) allows you to follow the same path back to your
     original message.  NOTE: If you stray from the path by moving
     to a message not contained in the path, you will not be able
     to return to the defined path.  (<) performs the same function.

SAVE MESSAGE TO TEXT FILE
To save the displayed message to a text file, press (S). A window
will open displaying a default file name, or the last name you used
when saving a file. You may use the displayed name, change it, enter
a new name or press (F10) to choose one from the 'Save Picklist'.
See Field Editing for valid commands while entering text.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
If the file already exists, you are asked if you want to append it.
If you select 'yes' the saved message is added to the end of the
existing file.  Answering 'no' will cause the existing file to be
overwritten.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The save command can also be used to print messages.  By specifying
PRN, LPT1, LPT2, LPT3, LPT4, etc., you can send the output to a
printer port instead of a disk file.  Note that the Print Command
(P) assumes LPT1 as printer port.  If your system's printer is not

specific BBSs, using (ALT-B) from the select conference window, or
conferences within a BBS, using (ALT-P) with a message displayed.

Fido mode to "Off" and toggle "On" the local Fido mode for that one
specific conference.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Another use of Local Parameters is to segregate your taglines based

  (INS)  Toggles between the insert and over-type mode.  While in
         the insert mode the cursor's height will increase and new
         characters are inserted by shifting all remaining text one
         position to the right of the cursor.  Toggling back to the
         over-type mode will restore the cursor to its normal size
         and characters entered will replace those at the cursor.

it.  This is either the default or the last entered text.  Pressing
any character will erase the line and allow you to enter new text.

MONOCHROME MODE
The /MONO command line option forces the program into a monochrome
mode thus eliminating the use of colors.  Normally, SPEED will
detect the type of video card in your computer and adjust the colors
accordingly.  However, if you are using a color card (CGA, EGA or
VGA) and a monochrome monitor, SPEED will attempt to display colors.
This may be difficult to read.  To override the auto-detect and
force the program into a monochrome mode, start SPEED as such:

VIEWER MODE
When SPEED is started with a /v command line switch it goes into a
View Mode.  View Mode allows you to read through messages without
SPEED marking the messages as read.  When in the view mode SPEED
disallows several functions such as pruning, deleting, replying or
most any other function that would alter the message base.  This
option is also useful for retrieving quotes from an external editor.
To start SPEED in the View Mode enter the following:

SWAP OVERLAYS
The Real-Mode version of SPEED uses internal program overlays to
pack more program code into the same amount of space.  SPEED offers
two command line options designed to speed up the overlay process by
swapping the discarded program code to Extended and/or Expanded
memory for later use.  The command line options are:
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 /XMS - Swap discarded program code to EXTENDED memory for later
        use.  The detection of available extended memory is not
        always successful because of the multitude of different
        cache and RAM disk programs that take over extended memory
        without leaving a mark.  USE WITH CARE!

 /EMS - Swap discarded program code to EXPANDED mem. for later use.

WELCOME
Welcome to SPEED READ!  SPEED is a next-generation offline message
manager.  Unlike most of the leading offline mail readers, SPEED
allows you to combine incoming mail packets with an existing message
base.  This provides you with seamless access to older messages,
much like you would have when reading messages on-line.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The real beauty of SPEED is in its user interface.  SPEED was
designed to make you feel right at home from the very first time you
use it.  Every attempt was made to structure the key sequences in a
logical manner.  To aid in learning SPEED, popup menus are available
in many places by pressing the (/) key.  Also, an extensive,
on-line, context-sensitive, hyper-text, help system is always just
one key away.  When you have a question, just press (F1).  It's like
always having the manual open to the right page.  A lot of thought
and time went into SPEED, I hope you find it as useful as I do.

ERROR EXECUTING EDITOR
An error occurred while attempting to execute the message
editor.  The most common reason for this type of error is
an insufficient amount memory available to load the editor.
You may view the amount of free memory by pressing (ALT-M).
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
If a lack of memory is the problem, you might consider removing
any memory resident programs (TSR's) and try running SPEED
again.  If there are no memory resident programs running or
you still don't have enough memory after removing them, then
you may be forced to reduce the number of 'Keep Old' messages
for this particular conference.  An index with key information
about each message in the active conference/area is kept in
memory at all times.  Therefore, more messages in the message
base will require a larger amount of memory for the index.

MARK QUOTE
SPEED allows you to extract portions of different messages to be
included in a reply.  The quotes are accumulated in a file then
automatically inserted at the beginning of your next reply.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The (Q) command is used to mark the first displayed line of the
active message.  Marked lines are shown in reverse video.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The (ALT-Q) command is used to write marked lines to a text file.
This file is automatically inserted at the beginning of your next
reply.  If a quote file exists, you are given the option to append.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The (CTRL-Q) command functions exactly like the (ALT-Q) command
except initials and the quote string are omitted.

DOS COMMAND
The DOS Command (CTRL-\) or (CTRL-D) allows you to execute a DOS
command without exiting SPEED.  You can perform DOS related
functions such as formatting disks, copying files or any other
needed activity.  Enter the command in the prompt window just like
you would from a DOS prompt.   When the operation is finished, you
are automatically returned to SPEED.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
If Swapping is turned off, SPEED is left in conventional memory.
This will limit the amount of free memory while executing the DOS
command.  If you get errors such as 'Program too big to fit in
memory' or 'Out of memory' try turning Swapping on before shelling
to DOS.  To change the Swap setting press (ALT-C), select
Toggles/Options, set Swapping to either SWAP or SPAWNO and press
(TAB) to save the change.

MAILING LISTS
Mailing lists are used to send a group of people the same message
without having to prepare an individual message for each person.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Mailing lists are ASCII text files in a prescribed format.  They
must begin with @, have an extension of .LST and be located in the
SPEED directory.  There should not be any blank lines in the mailing
list file.  Each line should either contain a comment or an entry.
Comment lines begin with // (two slashes).  An entry consists of
Name, BBS, Area, Fido and First Line fields.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
A sample mailing list file, @SAMPLE.LST, is provided for you to use
as a template when creating new mailing lists.  Remember to delete
or comment out the 2 sample entries.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
To use a mailing list, enter the list's filename in the the To:
field, with no extension (e.g. @SAMPLE).  SPEED will automatically
generate a message addressed to each person in the mailing list.

EXCLUDE/INCLUDE QUOTE
When displaying a message, SPEED tries to determine which lines are
quotes so that they may be highlighted with a different color.
SPEED does this by looking for certain characters within the first 5
characters of a line ('|', '>' and all high-bit characters).
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Exclude Quote allows you to exclude certain characters that would
normally be considered a quote character.  For example, if you do
not want the beta symbol to cause a line to be highlighted as a
quote add ß (ALT-225) to this field.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Include Quote allows you to include certain characters that would
normally not be considered a quote character.  For example, add } in
this field if you want a line such as "JS} Text" to be considered a
quote.

BLANK REPLY
This toggle allows you to selectively quote from a reply instead of
quoting the entire text.  When this toggle is On, nothing is passed
to your editor except what was quoted using the (Q) and
(ALT-Q)/(CTRL-Q) commands.  When this toggle is Off, the entire
message text is quoted and passed to the editor along with any
additional quotes marked with the (Q) and (ALT-Q)/(CTRL-Q) commands.

REPLACEABLE VARIABLES
Replaceable variables are entered directly into a reply and SPEED
automatically inserts the referenced text into the final reply.
Replaceable variables are also available in fields used to run
external programs (e.g. editor, tagline manager, DOS command, etc).
Below is a partial list. Refer to SR.DOC for a complete list & desc.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The case of replaceable variables, is determined by the first letter
of the variable (e.g. #bbs# would return "Lunatic" while #BBS# would
return "LUNATIC").
