TheNet X-1J
release 4
USER GUIDE
This brief note is intended for users of TheNet X-1J, and explains the basic commands. Configuration and sysop features are not covered fully.

TheNet X-1J is an extension of TheNet 1, and provides a number of new features.

The switch provides the following user commands :

Connect, Info, Nodes, Routes, Users, Talk, CQ, BBS, Host, MHeard, Bye, DXcluster, IProute, ARP, QUIT, ADC

Not all commands may be available on every node as certain commands might have been disabled. If a command has been enabled, it will be displayed when you type an invalid command such as '?'. In addition, there are some commands that are available but are not usually displayed. The main ones of interest are :

Links, Mode, Parms, Stats, IPAddress, DXCAlias, BBSAlias, HostAlias, MTU, L3MHeard

The Sysop may have customised the command list according to local needs.

In general, commands take parameters, for example to connect to GB7MXM, the command to be entered is CONNECT GB7MXM followed by return. Usually, commands are not case sensitive, ( although node aliases may be ) and commands may be abbreviated.
