   @0A@You are allowed to make changes to certain information in your user record
   with this option.  When this option is selected, a complete screen of your
   modifiable settings is displayed followed by the sub-prompt:

             @0E@Setting to change [@0F@1..16@0E@], [@0F@H@0E@]elp ? [  ]

   @0A@Below is a breakdown of the available options.

   @0E@[@0F@1..16@0E@] -
        @0A@This is the number of the field you wish to edit.

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

   Depending on the system configuration, you may not be able to edit all
   of the fields.  Certain ones like Phone Number and Alias and Birth date
   have the ability to be only updated by the SysOp.  In that case, when
   you attempt to modify them, the system will generate a message to the
   SysOp informing him/her that you wish to make the necessary changes.
   Below is a list of the user-modifiable fields.

         @0E@[ @0F@1@0E@] Password -
              @0A@Password used to logon to the system.  Your password can be
              up to 14 characters long.

         @0E@[ @0F@2@0E@] Computer type -
              @0A@This field is used to identify the type of computer you are
              using to connect to the BBS.

         @0E@[ @0F@3@0E@] Phone number -
              @0A@Your VOICE phone number.  Normally, this is only used by the
              Sysop in unusual circumstances and is always held in the
              strictest of confidence.

         @0E@[ @0F@4@0E@] Birth date -
              @0A@Your birth date in MM/DD/YY format.

         @0E@[ @0F@5@0E@] Screen length -
              @0A@This will determine the number of lines displayed before
              displaying a @0C@-Pause-@0A@ prompt.  This is used to prevent
              information from scrolling off the screen.  Normally this
              value is set to 23.  A value of 0 is used to turn off the
              automatic screen pauses.

         @0E@[ @0F@6@0E@] Color menus -
              @0A@Ability to toggle on or off the fancy color menus.

         @0E@[ @0F@7@0E@] Erase prompt -
              @0A@This causes various command prompts to be erased prior to
              displaying any more information, allowing for very smooth
              screen operation.

         @0E@[ @0F@8@0E@] Hot keys -
              @0A@With this feature turned on, you need only tap the letter
              that corresponds to the option.  Pressing @0E@[@0F@ENTER@0E@]@0A@ after the
              command is not required.

         @0E@[ @0F@9@0E@] Quote on reply -
              @0A@When replying to a message with this option toggled on, the
              original message is placed at the beginning of the reply and
              allows you to respond to specific sections of that message
              using normal editing features.

         @0E@[@0F@10@0E@] Msg Clear Screen -
              @0A@Allows the ability to clear the screen prior to displaying
              the next message.

         @0E@[@0F@11@0E@] Default editor -
              @0A@This option is used to select which type of editor you wish
              to use as a default when entering and replying to messages.
              When selecting this option, the caller is presented with the
              following prompt:

              @0E@Current editor setting: @0B@No default

              @0E@[@0F@L@0E@]ine editor        :  @0B@use a standard line-by-line editor.
              @0E@[@0F@F@0E@]ull screen editor :  @0B@use an ANSI driven editor.
              @0E@[@0F@S@0E@]elect each time   :  @0B@decide on editor before each use.

              @0E@[@0F@H@0E@]elp with selection.

              Default editor mode? [ ]


              @0A@Each type of editor has it's own set of requirements and thus
              must be chosen carefully.  Below is an brief explanation of
              each type.

              @0E@[@0F@L@0E@]ine editor -
                   @0A@This is a common type of message editor requiring the
                   caller to enter in information one line at a time.  The
                   primary disadvantage to this is editing.  For editing
                   changes to be made, you must enter in the word to be
                   corrected followed by the correct spelling.  This can be
                   time consuming at best.  Only the Delete key and
                   Backspace keys are active.  Use of the cursor keys will
                   cause unpredictable and undesirable results.

              @0E@[@0F@F@0E@]ull screen editor -
                   @0A@The full-screen editor supports several cursor movement
                   commands generated by different communication programs.
                   Cursor positioning using ANSI terminal emulation as well
                   as standard ESCape commands are interpreted properly.
                   If you find that your communication program is not
                   operating properly when in the full-screen editor, you
                   may need to activate ANSI terminal emulation mode.

              @0E@[@0F@S@0E@]elect each time -
                   @0A@Allow the option to be able to choose which editor you
                   would like to use prior to editing or replying to a
                   message.

              @0E@[@0F@H@0E@]elp with selection -
                   @0A@Displays Help information on the various editor types and
                   their functions.

         @0E@[@0F@12@0E@] File display mode -
              @0A@Changing the default file display mode alters the way files
              are listed on the screen.  This selection is only a default,
              you have the option of overriding it every time files are
              listed by appending a @0F@S, D,@0A@ or @0F@F@0A@ to the file list command.
              When changing your default, the following sub-prompt is
              displayed:

              @0E@Current file list method is: @0F@Double line

              @0E@[@0F@S@0E@]ingle line  : @0B@displays name and short desc only.
              @0E@[@0F@D@0E@]ouble line  : @0B@displays name, date, size, DL time.
              @0E@[@0F@F@0E@]ull listing : @0B@displays all information on the file.

              New file display method? : [ ]

              @0A@Remember, whichever method you choose here, it's just a
              default, and may be overridden each time files are listed.

         @0E@[@0F@13@0E@] Help level -
              @0A@Three different types of help levels exist in WILDCAT!
              Selecting this option presents the following sub-prompt:

                  @0E@Current help level is set at: @0F@NOVICE

                  @0E@[@0F@N@0E@]ovice  : @0B@Complete menus, full command line.
                  @0E@[@0F@R@0E@]egular : @0B@No menus, command line only.
                  @0E@[@0F@E@0E@]xpert  : @0B@No menus or command line.

                  @0E@Help level desired [@0F@N R E@0E@] ? ? [@0F@N@0E@]

              @0A@Below is a explanation of the above options.

              @0E@[@0F@N@0E@]ovice -
                   @0A@The first and default value for new users is the Novice
                   level.  At this level, the user is presented with full,
                   dynamic monochrome or color menus, and a command line
                   prompt containing the name of current menu area (Main,
                   Message, File) and the first character for a particular
                   option in the current menu.  The characters presented
                   agree with the letter designator selected for that option.

              @0E@[@0F@R@0E@]egular -
                   @0A@This is the second level.  At this level, only the current
                   conference number/description, time and command line option
                   letter designator's are displayed.  No menus are displayed
                   at this level.  Shown below is a sample display prompt.

              @0E@Conf: @0B@"[0] - Main Message Area"@0E@, time on @0F@1@0E@, with @0F@59@0E@ left
              MAIN MENU: [@0F@M F C B P I Q V Y S U O G H ? J W T@0E@] ? [ ]


              @0E@[@0F@E@0E@]xpert -
                   @0A@The final and highest level is the Expert level.  At this
                   level, only the current conference number and description
                   along with the menu name is displayed.  Shown below is a
                   sample display prompt.

                   @0E@General Message Area (0), @0F@MAIN MENU@0E@: ? [ ]

                   @0A@Selecting this level requires a reasonable understanding of
                   all the options.  It's primarily designed for speed.  If at
                   any time you forget what a certain option letter is,
                   pressing @0E@[@0F@?@0E@]@0A@ at any of the menus will present you with a
                   HELP screen showing all the possible options.

                   The HELP LEVEL command is available in ALL major menus and
                   the usage is exactly the same in each of them.

         @0E@[@0F@14@0E@] Default protocol -
              @0A@This option selects which file transfer protocol will be used
              when downloading or uploading files to the BBS.

         @0E@[@0F@15@0E@] Calling from -
              @0A@The location from which you are calling from in City, State
              format. i.e. - Vallejo, CA

         @0E@[@0F@16@0E@] Alias name -
              @0A@This field is used for a name which you would like to be
              known as other than your real name.  This is a secret type
              identity.  Please note, this field is only displayed if you
              are presently IN an alias type conference.

         @0E@[@0F@17@0E@] Chat status -
              @0A@Chat status is used for enabling/disabling the ability to be
              interrupted by other callers for a quick chat between nodes.
