Learn the Net v1.1
by Stuart Shaw
Hello everybody,
Thank you for taking the time for reading this Doc.
Before we start I would ask you to do all the Lessons in the
correct order.
When you have read a Paragraph over 3 lines press Enter.
If it is not over 3 lines it will carry on itself
Feel Free to pass this programme onto your friends
Please do not use the peoples nicknames on IRC.
All the information which you see with a "!" at the start is not
shown on the Internet, it is telling you what to put in.
The best internet provider for Atari is Demon.
Get all your Software from BBS's or from PD Library's.
I think Ad-Lib has Oasis.
On the Internet I use Oasis version 1.35E, Cab (the Web Browser)
and STiK (to dial).
I don't use Oasis 2 because it is very unstable.
The best maginzine to buy for Lists of prices and phone numbers
for internet Providers is .Net
=================================================================
THE PROGRAMME
-------------
This programme is very simple.
All you need to do is to just click on what you want to do on
the Menu.
Please do the Lessons in order.
I'll explain what each menu does
FILE

QUIT

This will quit the programme (I bet you didn't know that!)

LESSONS
-------
IRC
---
This teaches you all about IRC which is Chat.
It also shows you some cool commands.
FTP
---
This will teach you about FTP which allows you
to upload and download.
You will be shown a FTP site.
One thing which is missing is how to upload.
To do this you put
PUT "filename"
That is how you do it in NOS
EMAILS
------
This just quickly explains emails.
Which are letters
NEWSGROUPS + NOS
----------------
This explains about Nos which is a way to get onto the Internet.
I use Nos a lot.
And last but not least...
WEB
---
This teaches you about the Web. It doesn't show you a web page.
All it is text in this lesson.
In the next issue it will tell you how to make a web page.
##
PRINTOUT
--------
This option prints out the sections on underneath it.
It asks you first incase you hit the mouse on that option.
SCREENOUT
--------
This Option puts on the Screen what is printed out by Print out.
