 Terminal Configuration
 -----------------------
   ^nodetitle needs to know two (2) things about you and your terminal in
order to make system usage as pleasurable as possible.  You told us about
them when you logged in (presumably, or perhaps the sysop did when
s/he created your account), but you may want to change the settings
anyways.

   Additionally, you can set other options related to your terminal
to tune your usage of ^variantname.  These are explained below.

   <W>idth          <L>inefeeds
   <D>elays         <P>aging
   <N>ulls          <H>alf-duplex

 Screen Width:
 Select using 'W' (i.e., .ECW). This is the width of your screen in columns
(NOT inches!).
When you request this option the system will prompt for a screen width.  If you
find after using this option that you are occasionally getting anomalous blank
lines, and the last character of the line above the blank line seems to be in
the 80th column, you are using flawed terminal software which does not
understand when line wrap is supposed to occur (don't feel bad, this is a very
common problem).  If this is happening, try setting the Width to one less than
the width of your screen.  For instance, .ECW 79 is a very common setting.

 Linefeeds:
 Select using 'L' (.ECL).  This is a simple toggle which alternately turns on
and off your
need for ^variantname to transmit a Linefeed after it sends a Carriage Return
(the standard End Of Line indicator in the BBS world).  If you find that either
each line writes over the one before it, or EVERY line is followed by one
or more blank lines, then use this option.

 Delays:
 Select using 'D' (.ECD).  With the advent of cheap, fast modems, it's become
very common for
even the most destitute of users to have very fast modems.  While this is very
useful for downloading files and messages, you may want to slow the output
while you're reading messages online.  To this end ^variantname provides the
<D>elay parameter.  It tells ^variantname how long to pause after each
character is spat out to the modem when you're reading messages or text files
in ASCII
mode (this option has no effect when you're downloading messages or files using
XMODEM or any other protocol).  The units of delay are milliseconds.  Feel free
to experiment with this value to get it to a value you feel comfortable reading
at.

 Paging:
 Select using 'P' (.ECP).  Some users don't want to use .ECD, they prefer to
read in terms of "pages".  .ECP allows you to select the size of your page.
After each page is presented, you'll be presented with a <^more> prompt.  Here's
what happens when you hit a character while at such a prompt:

     's', 'q': Stop the output.
     <carriage return or Enter>: Show next line of output
     anything else: show next page of output.

(Aides have more options.)  If you select a page size of 0 then this option is
disabled.

 Nulls:
 Select using 'N' (.ECN).  Nulls are used on very old terminals which, when
given a carriage return, actually need some time to move the cursor (or print
head) down a line and all the way to the left.  Unless you're having problems,
ignore this.

 Half Duplex:
 Select using 'H' (.ECH). This is useful for the rare user who's terminal
generates
its own echo when the user types.  Nearly no one uses this option (so don't
worry if you don't understand), but sometimes PCPursuit people find it very
useful as a way to get away from the inherent jerkiness of the service.
