   @0A@After finishing your initial draft of the message you wish to send,
   pressing either ESCAPE or ENTER twice (depending on which editor you're
   using) will display the following sub-prompt.

    @0E@Edit Message [@0F@A@0E@]bort, [@0F@C@0E@]ontinue,    [@0F@I@0E@]nsert, [@0F@L@0E@]ist, [@0F@E@0E@]dit, Ca[@0F@r@0E@]bon

   @0A@From here you have a wide range of available options prior to actually
   saving your message.  Below is a description of each of these options.

     @0E@[@0F@A@0E@]bort -
          @0A@This will not update the message and will cancel all changes made
          during the editing session.  If this was a new message, nothing will
          will saved and you will be returned to the Message Menu.

     @0E@[@0F@C@0E@]ontinue -
          @0A@You will be able to continue editing the message.  The cursor will
          be positioned at the last line you entered and return you to
          SINGLE LINE editing mode.

     @0E@[@0F@I@0E@]nsert -
          @0A@Allows insertion of new lines in the text.  You are prompted for
          the line number where new lines should be inserted.  You are then
          asked to enter your text, and then your new line(s) are added at
          the chosen number.  Any number of new lines will be inserted as
          automatic word-wrap creates more new lines as needed.

     @0E@[@0F@L@0E@]ist -
          @0A@This will redisplay the message with normal screen pauses in
          effect (if needed), and present you with the 'Edit Message'
          prompt.

     @0E@[@0F@E@0E@]dit -
          @0A@Selecting this option will place you back in edit mode, but in the
          SINGLE LINE mode of editing.  Below is a explanation on how to use
          this mode to edit a specific line.

          The old and new text is separated by a "@0F@;@0A@".  The terminology used
          is @0B@OLDSTRING@0A@ for the text to be replaced and @0E@NEWSTRING@0A@ for the new
          text.  After asking for the line number to be edited, WILDCAT!
          needs to know what needs to be changed.  The syntax for this
          procedure is:@0F@

                         @0B@OLDSTRING@0F@;@0E@NEWSTRING
             @0F@(note the semicolon between the two words).

          @0A@This command is translated as "Take the first occurrence of the
          characters @0B@OLDSTRING@0A@ and delete them, then insert the characters
          @0E@NEWSTRING@0A@ in the same location.  For example, if the message line
          reads:

               @0F@"this is a message to shw how to use th Edit command."

          @0A@Obviously we need to change two errors, the word "th" for "the"
          and "shw" for "show".  First lets fix "shw" by using the command
          "shw;show" which scans for the word "shw" and replaces it with
          "show".  Now the harder correction. Notice that the first
          occurrence of the incorrect text "th" is actually a part of
          correct text "this" in the 1st word. Therefore we can't simply use
          the command "th;the" or the new message will read:

                           @0F@"theis is a message...".

          @0A@The proper method is to broaden the @0B@OLDSTRING@0A@ search to include
          additional unique text such as:

                              @0F@"use th;use the"

          @0A@Notice that we can replace any number of letters even with a
          shorter or longer @0E@NEWSTRING@0A@.

          After an edit the caller is presented with the corrected line and
          allowed to make more corrections, if needed.  Pressing [ENTER] will
          terminate the edit mode.

     @0E@Ca[@0F@r@0E@]bon -
          @0A@You will be prompted for the user name(s) of whom you want to
          receive copies of the message being edited.  This is very useful
          if you would like to send this message to more than one person.
          Each person that receives this message will have a @0F@"cc: Username"@0A@
          appended to the end of this message.

     @0E@[@0F@Q@0E@]uote -
          @0A@Allows you to quote all or part of the message being replied to.
          You are asked for the start line to quote and then you need to
          enter the last line to quote.  You then need to [C]ontinue your
          message and you will be positioned at the end of the quoted lines.
          The quoted lines will appear with the minus-greater-than "->" on
          the far left side.  Press [ENTER], and then you can continue with
          your reply.

     @0E@[@0F@F@0E@]ull Screen -
          @0A@This will take you back to the full screen editor and will put you
          in edit mode placing the cursor at the end of the message.

     @0E@[@0F@D@0E@]elete -
          @0A@You will be prompted for the line number(s) to delete.  The editor
          will then redisplay the line(s) you want to delete and will ask
          for confirmation before actually deleting them.

     @0E@[@0F@S@0E@]ave -
          @0A@After the message has been proofread and edited, the save command
          will update the message base with the message and appropriate
          carbon copies, if requested.

     @0E@[@0F@H@0E@]elp -
          @0A@Displays this Help screen.

     @0E@At[@0F@t@0E@]ach -
          @0A@This function allows you to attach a file to the current message.
          This allows the reader the ability to download the file.  This file
          is not maintained in the normal file database, but rather stored
          separately with the messages.  This file will then stay "attached"
          to the message until it has been @0E@[@0F@K@0E@]illed@0A@.
