                       HELP ON COMBINED ORDERED READING

You are currently accessing message boards using the combined, ordered access 
method.  This allows you to read messages in several message areas at the same 
time, on an area-by-area basis.  

You selected help from a prompt line which has several commands.  Before the 
commands were listed, however, the system displayed the name of a message 
board.  This board the name of the message area you are currently accessing.  
All commands available to you here will act on the displayed message board 
name only.  The number of messages in the displayed message board is shown as 
well.  The commands are: 


<M>ark as Read

        Allows you to mark all messages on the displayed message board
        as read.  Once you do so, messages in that message area will 
        no longer be considered "new" messages as of your next call 
        to the system.  

<J>ump Over

        Allows you to jump over (skip) all messages on the displayed
        message board.  You then have the option of coming back later 
        to read them.  Unread messages in the area will still be 
        considered new messages and are unaffected in any way.

<C>ontinue

        Allows you to read messages in the currently displayed message
        board using the method you selected previously (such as Forward, 
        Reverse, New, and so forth). 

<S>top

        Allows you to stop access to this message read and return to
        the previous menu.
