ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1. FleetStreet ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Welcome to
FleetStreet 0.81 Beta
FleetStreet is a FTS compatible message editor for OS/2 2.x PM. FleetStreet can
handle *.MSG and Squish type message areas.
Topics:
o Design goals of FleetStreet
o Limitations (yes, there are some)
o Installation and configuration
o Using FleetStreet
o Registering FleetStreet
o Future enhancements
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.1. Design goals ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
We had several design issues in mind while developing FleetStreet. Maybe you
want to read about some of them.
Why a PM editor?
The Presentation Manager (tm) interface may be slower than the VIO
interfae (but only when you use VIO in full screen). On the other
hand, PM provides many advantages to the user. The clipboard is now
fully usable (VIO clipboard is a kludge!), the user can select fonts
and colors easily and isn't bound to a 80x25 (or similar) screen
format. PM also gives us the ability to implement all the dialog
boxes that make FleetStreet so easy to use.
Integrated setup
With other editors you may have struggled with a lot of ASCII
configuration files with as many different keywords. If you are used
to the various notebook settings dialogs of the workplace shell, you
will not have difficulties setting up FleetStreet. You can change
settings while FleetStreet is running and don't have to restart your
editor to make the changes take effect.
If you are in doubt about one setting, just press F1 or the HELP
buttons around. There's no need to read a lengthy ASCII
documentation.
Support for Squish (tm)
FleetStreet supports Squish in two ways: Firstly, it uses the squish
API implemented in MSGAPI.DLL. Secondly, FleetStreet can read your
Squish.Cfg configuration file.
Ease of use
Most PM applications are easy to use, but we've added to that.
Generally speaking, if you've used the WPS you will know how to use
FleetStreet. We have settings notebooks, popup menus, containers etc.
All the features you ever need
We've implemented a lot of features that we found to be useful in
other editors, and some that we didn't find elsewhere.
Power
FleetStreet makes use of multiple threads, CUA'91 and 32 Bit
processing.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.2. Limitations ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
There are some limitations of FleetStreet. Some of them are imposed by the
Squish API, some by OS/2 and some by FleetStreet itself. We'd like to inform
you about these.
Edit window
At the moment we use the MLE control of OS/2 for the editor window.
The MLE control doesn't handle all the fonts and colors that are
available with OS/2. In particular, it can use only bitmapped fonts
(ie. Helv, Courier, Tms Rmn, System font) and only non-mixed colors.
Squish API
The squish API doesn't allow for messages that are longer than 16 KB.
There is a maximum of 5200 messages per message area. There is no
"direct" message attribute.
If any of these limitations are removed in a newer version of Squish,
we'll be prepared to it.
Setup
You may have a maximum of 50 user names and 50 network addresses.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.3. Installing FleetStreet ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
If you've started FleetStreet for the first time you have to configure the
program.
There are two things you have to look after:
1. Setting up general options,
2. Setting up message areas.
If you like to change the outer appearance of FleetStreet you may change colors
and fonts as well.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.3.1. Setting up general options ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
FleetStreet needs to know some settings to operate properly. To enter these
settings select "Setup Options" from the menu bar. The settings will be saved
when you exit FleetStreet or when the system is shut down.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.3.2. Setting up message areas ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
There are two ways to add message areas to the area list:
1. Reading areas from the squish configuration file. Open the "Setup Options"
dialog, go to the "Squish" page, activate "read SQUISH.CFG" and fill in the
path and name of the configuration file. The area definition will be read
and these areas will appear in the area list.
2. Adding private areas to the area list. Open the area list, press the minor
mouse button (usually this is the right button), and select "Create
another" from the popup menu. Fill in the fields of the settings notebook
and close the dialog.
To change settings for message areas, do the following:
1. Open the area list
2. Click on the area which settings you like to change, use the right mouse
button for this
3. Select "Settings" from the popup menu
4. Change the area settings in the settings notebook
5. Close the dialog
To edit the description of an area, do the following:
1. Open the area list
2. Hold down the ALT key and click on the apropriate area using the left mouse
button.
3. Edit the description
4. To save changes click on another area using the left mouse button
To delete a private area, do the following:
1. Open the area list
2. Click on the area you want to delete using the rigt mouse button
3. Select "Delete" from the popup menu.
Areas that were read from the squish configuration file can not be deleted, but
they may be hidden from the area list.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.3.3. Changing colors and fonts ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
You won't find any menu item or dialog for changing colors or fonts of the main
window of FleetStreet. This is because FleetStreet uses Workplace Shell objects
to costumize its appearance.
The color palette
Open a color palette, drag a color to FleetStreet and drop it on the
appropriate element in the window. To change the color of textual
elements hold down the CTRL key while dropping. If you don't hold
down CTRL the background color of the element will be changed.
The color of the following elements will be saved:
- message window (foreground and background)
- window background (drop color above the speed buttons)
- area title (foreground and background)
- message numbers (foreground and background)
- message dates (foreground and background)
- message header (foreground and background)
- menu bar (foreground and background)
- status line (foreground and background)
- status line border (hard to hit)
- clock (foreground and background)
- area list (foreground and background)
- message list (foreground and background)
- message thread list (foreground and background)
- address indicator (foreground and background)
The font palette
Open a font palette, drag a font to FleetStreet and drop it on the
appropriate element in the window.
The font of the following elements will be saved:
- message window
- area title
- message numbers
- message dates
- message header
- menu bar
- status line
- clock
- area list
- message list
- message thread list
- "Change" button
- address indicator
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.4. Using FleetStreet ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Select one of the following topics:
o Entering Fidonet addresses
o Writing messages
o Changing messages
o Crossposting messages
o Using carbon copy lists
o Using the message list
o Using the thread list
o Using message templates
o Finding messages
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.4.1. Entering Fidonet addresses ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
When writing messages you must specify the network address of the recipient.
This is usually done by entering the full 3-D or 4-D address.
However, FleetStreet can assist you by completing uncomplete addresses. If you
enter an uncomplete address, the missing components are automatically added
using your own address as the default.
The following examples illustrate the process. The default address
2:2490/2520.17 is assumed:

The general rules are:
1. A single number is treated as "Net".
2. If the point number is not specified, it is set to "0".
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.4.2. Writing messages ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
There are two different ways to add new messages to your message base:
Writing new messages
If you want to enter a new message, click on the button or press the
INS key. The message window will be cleared and your own name and
address will be inserted into the appropriate fields of the message
header. You can now enter the name and address of the receipient (see
"Entering Fidonet addresses") and write your message in the message
window.
After you've entered your message, click on the button or press
CTRL-S. The message will then be saved to your message base. Click on
the button or press ESC if you don't want to save your message.
Replying to a message
To reply to a message you've received, click on the button or press
CTRL-R. You may either reply to the sender of the message (the usual
case), or to the recepient. You may also place your reply in a
different message area (usually a Netmail area.
After editing your reply message, click on the button or press
CTRL-S to save it. Click on the button or press ESC to discard your
reply.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.4.3. Changing Messages ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Messages can be changed after you've saved them. Press the button to switch to
edit mode. Now you can re-edit your message. You can change the message text
and the message header.
To toggle the attributes of the message, press the Change button. A dialog
window appears, where you can set or clear the message attributes.
If you edit a message that was already sent or that is not not a local message,
you will get a warning.
Press the button to save your changes. If you want to discard the edited
message, press the button.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.4.4. Crossposting messages ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Crossposting a message means that the same message is saved in more than one
area.
You can activate crossposting by selecting Crosspost from the menu. This
function is available when you are writing a message.
The area list is opened and you can select the areas, where the message should
be saved.
Note: You don't have to select the current area in the list. The message is
always saved in the current area. Just select the additional areas.
When crossposting mode is active, a checkmark is displayed in front of
Crosspost in the menu.
You can deactivate crossposting mode by selecting Crosspost again. The
checkmark will disappear again, indicating that you're in normal editing mode.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.4.5. Using Carbon Copy Lists ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Using a carbon copy list means that you're sending the same message to
different recipients. Carbon copy lists can only be used for Netmail.
Imagine the following example:
You're compiling a newsletter that you're sending to a number of people on a
regular basis. To perform this task with FleetStreet, you can create a carbon
copy list named "Newsletter". Now you can add all the people who should receive
the newsletter to the list.
Now, when you want to send the letter via Netmail, compose your message as you
would normally do it. But instead of entering a recipient, select Carbon copy
from the menu. You can now select your carbon copy list "Newsletter" that
you've configured before. The text "*** Newsletter ***' appears, indicating
that you're using the list.
When you're sending the next issue of your newsletter, you don't have to create
a new carbon copy list. You can simply re-use the previous one.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.5. Registering FleetStreet ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This Beta version need not be registered.
However, it can only be used for a limited amount of time. Verification of the
registration code may be active for testing purposes, but that has no further
meaning. All features in this version that are currently de-activated can not
be activated with a code. They are simply not yet implemented.
We will inform you about terms and conditions just before version 1.0.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.6. Future enhancements ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Some things that we have in mind for future versions:
We will port it to MS Windows - NOT!
It would cost us a lot of time and/or money to do a Windows port.
Even if we did it, the Windows version wouldn't be as powerful and
comfortable as the OS/2 version.
Enhancements to the user interface
We have several things in mind, but we like to hear from YOU, too.
Other message base types
At the moment Squish is the only OS/2 based mail processor. But if a
different system is ever going to be as popular as Squish, we will be
prepared to it.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2. Setup ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Setup
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.1. User settings ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
If you want to use FleetStreet you must have at least one user name and one
address. The origin line is optional, but it's a good idea to have one.
Your names and your addresses are shown in two lists. To add new names or new
addresses, press the corresponding "Add" button. You are prompted for a new
item.
To delete a name or an address, select the item in the list and press the
"Delete" button.
To change a name or an address, select the item in the list and press the
"Change" button.
To make a name or an address the default, select the item in the list and press
the "Default" button. If you create new message areas or read areas from the
squish configuration file, the default name and default address will be
selected as the initial name or address for that area.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.2. Squish options ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
FleetStreet can read the squish configuration file, thus making it easier to
provide consistency between your message base maintained by SQUISH and that
maintained by FleetStreet.
Echotoss.Log
The Echotoss.Log file is a plain ASCII text file where all the
message areas are listed, where you have entered mail. Squish and
other utilities read this file to process only these areas (normally
Squish processes all areas, which may take much longer). FleetStreet
creates this file if necessary and writes the appropriate area names
to it.
If this option is turned off, FleetStreet does not write to the file.
Lastread
This is the offset into the lastread file for each message area. The
number of the message that was last read is stored in in a lastread
file (*.SQL files for Squish message areas). Each user of a BBS has
his own offset, the sysop usually has offset 0. Some utility programs
use an offset as well.
If you don't understand the meaning of this setting it's best to
leave it at 0.
The current limit for this setting is 500, thus giving the sysop
access to the lastread pointers of his first 500 users. If you really
have a need for more users, feel free to drop us a note.
Squish.Cfg
If you want FleetStreet to read the squish configuration file
automatically at startup, klick on "read SQUISH.CFG". Specify path
and name of the file in the entryfield below, or press the "Locate"
button to select the file via a file dialog.
Caution: If you have already specified a file, you will loose the
descriptions of the areas that were read from the old file. This will
also happen when you read the old file for a second time. Private
message areas (i.e. areas defined in FleetStreet only) will not be
touched.
If an error occures while reading the new file, you will get an error
message and nothing will be lost.
Note: You must have entered at least one user name to read the file.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Error reading SQUISH.CFG ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
An error occured while trying to read the squish configuration file. There are
two causes for this error:
1. The file didn't exist or FleetStreet couldn't access it, maybe because it
was already in use by another program, or
2. The file was read, but there is no area definition in it.
Try again and select a valid configuration file.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Duplicate Areas ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
One or more areas that were read from the squish configuration file are already
defined as private areas, i.e. they have the same area tag. Area tags must be
unique in the area list.
To solve the problem do one of the following:
o Change the area tags of your private areas,
o Edit the squish configuration file.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.3. Nicknames ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
With FleetStreet it is possible to define nicknames for users you often write
to.
To use these nicknames, just enter the nickname in the TO field of the message
and press "Enter". The nickname will be replaced by the real name, and the
address of the user will be entered automatically in the address field. If you
defined a subject line for this nickname, it will be inserted in the subject
field as well.
To define a nickname, do the following:
1. Press the "Add" button,
2. Fill in the fields,
3. Press "OK".
To change a nickname, do the following:
1. Select the nickname in the list,
2. Press the "Change" button or double click on the entry,
3. Do your changes,
4. Press "OK".
To delete a nickname, do the following:
1. Select the nickname in the list,
2. Press the "Delete" button.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.3.1. Nickname ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Enter a new nickname or change an existing nickname.
Nickname
This is what you type to reference this nickname.
Real name
This is the name of the addressed user as you would usually use it.
Address
Address of the user. Use a 3D or 4D address.
Subject
Default subject line. Useful for pseudo-users like area managers.
Leave this field blank if you don't want to have a subject line for
this nickname.
1st line
First line in message text. When this line contains a %?, you are
prompted for additional text.
This feature is intended to be used in conjunction with UUCP
gateways. Consider the following example:
Nickname: u
Real name: UUCP
Address: 1:234/567
Subject: test
First line: TO: %?"Enter UUCP address"
Now, when you use the nickname "U", the UUCP gateway is addressed and
you are prompted to enter the FQDA of the addressed user.
You can use the tokens %? or %?"prompt text".
Attributes
Default message attributes. These are set automatically when you use
the nickname.
Press OK to confirm your changes. Press Cancel to abort editing.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Prompt ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
There is a %? token in the nickname attribute "first line". You are prompted to
enter additional text.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Delete Nickname ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Press "YES" if you want to delete the selected nickname. Press "NO" if you want
to keep it.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Have Nickname ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
There already is an entry in the list with the same nickname. Nicknames must be
unique. Re-edit the entry.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.4. Macros ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
If you are editing a message and press F2 through F12, the text associated with
that key is inserted into the message window.
Note: F1 is reserved for HELP.
You may use the following tokens:
^M New Line
[...do you need more?]
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.5. Domains ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
FleetStreet can look up fidonet addresses of sysops by reading one or more
compiled nodelists.
Domains
List of currently defined domains.
Add
Add a new domain to the list.
Change
Change the domain information for the selected domain.
Delete
Delete the selected domain.
Nodelist
Enable nodelist lookups. You may either disable lookups or enable
lookups for Version 7 nodelists. Note: Version 6 nodelists are not
supported.
Modem types
Press this button to define the modem types, that are saved in the
nodelist.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.5.1. Domain ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
A domain has three attributes:
Domain name
Name of the domain, which must be unique.
Sysop index file
Index file of the compiled nodelist for this domain. This is usually
SYSOP.NDX for your primary AKA. The full path and name of the file
must be entered.
Nodelist data file
Data file of the compiled nodelist for this domain. This is usually
NODEX.DAT for your primary AKA. The full path and name of the file
must be entered.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.5.2. Modem types ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The compiled nodelist contains information about the modem of each node. This
information is saved in a single byte.
When you compile your nodelist, the nodelist compiler sets the bits of this
field according to the modem flags that are in the distribution nodelist. With
some compilers you can associate the bits with one or more flags.
Refer to the documentation of your nodelist compiler for details.
Example: When FastList (written by Alberto Pasquale) is configured with
TypeDef HST 1
TypeDef PEP 2
TypeDef V32 4
TypeDef V32B 8
TypeDef MNP 16
TypeDef V42 32
TypeDef V42B 64
TypeDef ISDNB 128
TypeDef ISDNC 128
TypeDef ISDNA 128
TypeDef UISDNB 128
TypeDef UISDNA 128
TypeDef UISDNC 128
set up FleetStreet with
Bit 0: HST
Bit 1: PEP
Bit 2: V32
Bit 3: V32b
Bit 4: MNP
Bit 5: V42
Bit 6: V42b
Bit 7: ISDN
When looking up a node, the modem flags are displayed correctly.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Domain already defined ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
You have already defined a domain with this name. Domain names must be unique.
Enter a unique domain name and press OK
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Delete Domain ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
You are about to delete a domain.
Press YES to delete the domain, press NO to keep it.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.6. Quote-O-Meter ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Excessive qouting is considered annoying in Fidonet. The Quote-O-Meter of
FleetStreet will help you avoiding flames because of too many quoted lines.
When this function is turned on and your reply message contains more quoted
lines than the warning level allows, FleetStreet will give you a warning
message.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.7. Options ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
You may specify several options that influence the way FleetStreet operates.
Startup Area
Specifies whether FleetStreet opens a specific area when started, or
whether the area is opened that was open when you last used
FleetStreet.
Tab size
Number of whitespace charaters that are inserted into the message
text when you press the TAB key while editing.
Use ^aPID
The ^aPID klugde line is used instead of the long tearline.
Use tearline in netmail
Tearline and origin line are used in netmail areas. When turned off,
tearline and origin are only used in echomail areas.
Area scan at startup
The areas are scanned automatically when FleetStreet is started.
Beep on personal mail
FleetStreet makes noise when a message is displayed which is
addressed to you.
Ask for confirmation
When you delete messages or make other significant changes,
FleetStreet will ask you to confirm the changes.
Don't use API for scanning
When scanning the areas for new mail, FleetStreet doesn't use the
Squish MsgAPI, but accesses the message base files directly. This is
usually much faster, but may not work with versions of the API newer
than the current one.
This option only affects Squish style message areas.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.8. Thread list ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The thread list can be displayed in various modes:
All Threads
All message threads containing all messages in the current area are
displayed.
Threads with unread messages
Only those threads, that contain at least one unread message, are
displayed.
Unread messages only
Only unread messages are displayed. Message threads begin with the
first unread message in the thread and end with the last unread
message. If a thread of unread messages is interrupted by a read
message, two threads will be displayed.
In addition, you may specify whether the name of the sender of the message
should be displayed or not.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.9. Exit ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
When you exit FleetStreet, two different actions may be performed:
Generate ERRORLEVEL
FleetStreet generates exit codes that my be queried in batch file
using ERRORLEVEL or Rexx programs using RC.
The exit codes are:
0 Nothing special happened
1 You have entered new netmail only
2 You have entered new echomail only
3 You have entered new echomail and new netmail
255 An unrecoverable error occured
Execute command line
One of the three command lines are executed, depending on the
conditions mentioned above.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.10. Register ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
After you've registered FleetStreet, enter your registration code and serial
number here. FleetStreet will then run in registered mode.
Registration code
Registration code, that you've received. The code must be entered
exactly in the same way, it must be exactly 40 letters long.
Serial number
Serial number, that you've received.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Invalid registration code ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The registration code and/or serial number is not valid. FleetStreet will still
run in unregistered mode.
If you've registered FleetStreet, check the code and serial number.
If you've not registered FleetStreet, REGISTER!
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.11. Printer ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
FleetStreet knows two ways of printing messages:
Via a PM printer driver
FleetStreet uses the currently active printer object and the driver
associated to it when printing messages. This ensures that
FleetStreet can print on every printer that has a driver, even if it
can't print plain ASCII text (e.g. Postscript printers).
Directly to a device
FleetStreet sends the message in plain ASCII text to the device
specified below. If you enter "PRN" as the device name, OS/2 prints
the message on your printer with the default printer font. This is
usually much faster than printing via a PM driver, but may not work
with all types of printers.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.12. Layout ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Show date arrived
The date and time when the message arrived at your system is
displayed.
Arealist in original order
The areas in the area list are not sorted alphabetically, but appear
in the same order as they are in the Squish configuration file.
Layout
Select a layout pattern.

keep it.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> New address ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Enter the new address or edit the old address. Press "OK" to confirm your
changes. Press "Cancel" if you don't want a new address or if you want to keep
the old one.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Delete address ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
If you want to delete the selected address, press "YES". Press "NO" if you want
to keep it.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Area already defined ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
There already is a message area with this area tag. Area tags must be unique.
Choose a different tag for the new area.

The message will go directly to the addressed system, i.e. it will
not be routed over your uplink. Your mailer will dial out when
possible and will try to deliver the mail.
Received
The message is a personal message and has already been read by you.
Sent
The message has been sent to your uplink.
File Attached
The subject line specifies the name of a file that is to be sent to
the recipient together with the message. Always combine this message
attribute with the "Crash" attribute! Most systems will not route an

leave this untouched.
Kill/Sent
The message will be deleted by Squish after it is packed for your
uplink.
Local
The message has been entered locally, i.e. by you.
Hold For Pickup
The message will not be sent
File Request

will be requested from the addressed system. Squish will generate the
request file when packing your mail. Use this attribute in netmail
areas only.
Return Receipt Request
Indicates that you like the receiver of the message to reply to it
and at least confirm that he has received your message.
Is Return Receipt
The message is such a reply.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.14. Area settings ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Topics:
General area settings
Message base settings
Area attributes
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.14.1. General area settings ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Fill in the description, area tag, default address and origin for this area. If
default address and area tag are not editable, this area was read from the
squish configuration file. The default address and area tag must then be
changed there.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.14.2. Message base settings ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Message base type
Specify the format of the message area on disk.
Area type
Specify whether the area is a netmail area or an echomail area.
Area path/file
Specify where the messages are stored on disk. For FTS *.MSG areas
specify the path to the directory that contains the *.MSG files. For
Squish areas specify the path and root name (eight characters) of the
area files.
If these settings are not changeable, the area was read from the squish
configuration file, and settings must be changed there.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.14.3. Area attributes ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Every message area can have some default message attributes and additional area
attributes.
Default message attributes
Messages entered in this area will have the specified attributes by
default. See "Message Attributes" for an explanation of the various
attributes.
Exclude from reading
The message area will not appear in the area list when you activate
"hide excluded areas" there. This is useful for sysops who have lots
of areas but only want to read a few of them.
Foreign characters allowed
Indicates that usage of foreign characters (i.e. ASCII values above
127) is allowed in this area. If such characters are not allowed,
FleetStreet will convert these characters while typing. See
"Translation table".
Separator line
A separator line will be drawn below this area in the area list.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.14.3.1. Character translation table ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
When foreign characters (8 bit ASCII) are not allowed in a message area,
FleetStreet uses the following translation table to convert characters while
typing:

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.15. Squish message base parameters ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
There are three major parameters that control how Squish message base file are
maintained by the Squish Message API.
Max. number of messages
Maximum number of messages that can be stored in this area. When
additional messages are tossed into this area or when you write new
messages in this area, older messages are deleted automatically, if
the limit represented by this value is hit.
Number of skipped messages
When deleting messages as described above, this nummer of messages
(from the beginning of the message base) are skipped.
Note: When you set this number to a value other than 0, you must set
a maximum of messages as well.
Number of days to keep messages
Specifies the number of days that messages should be kept. Messages
older than this number of days are deleted when you run SQPACK.
When you set all the numbers to 0, Squish will not delete any message
automatically.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Error reading parameters ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The Squish area parameters could not be read. This may be caused by one of the
following reasons:
o another process uses the file exclusively
o you don't have access rights to the file
o the file doesn't exist
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Error writing parameters ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The Squish area parameters could not be written. This may be caused by one of
the following reasons:
o another process uses the file exclusively
o you don't have access rights to the file
o the file doesn't exist
o the file is write protected
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Incorrect parameters ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
If you set "Number of skipped messages" to a value other than 0, you must set
"Max. number of messages" to a non-null value as well.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.16. Renumber Area ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
*.MSG areas become more and more "fragmented" while being used. It's desireable
from time to time to renumber the area. After being renumbered, the message
files in the area start from 1 and are numbered contiguously.
Start
Start renumbering the area
Cancel
Don't renumber the area
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.17. Additional message info ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This window contains all the kludge lines and SEEN-BYs of the current message.
You can copy its contents to the clipboard.
Press Close to close the window.
Press Copy to copy the marked text to the clipboard. If no text is marked, the
whole content of the window is copied to the clipboard.
You may leave the window open while reading. It is automatically updated when
you switch to other messages.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.18. Request files ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The requestable files are listed. Select one or more files that you like to
request from the sender.
Note: Any word in the message text that contains exactly one '.' and has
exactly three letters after the '.' is treated as a name of a requestable file.
Because of this some names might be offered that aren't valid file names. We
find that this is tolerable and better than being unable to request files that
don't have an extension of "ZIP" or "ZOO" or the like.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.19. Reply list ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
There is more than one reply to this message. The replies are listed with their
message number and the name of the sender. Select the message that you like to
read and press OK. Press CANCEL if you don't want to read any of these
messages.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Error reading profile ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
An error occured while reading the profile. This might be caused by a general
disk access error, i.e. read only medium, no access rights or the like.
FleetStreet will continue with default values, i.e. with no setup.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> No profile ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The saved profile could not be found or the profile is not valid. The file
FLTSTRT.INI must reside in the same directory as FLTSTRT.EXE.
If you've startet FleetStreet for the first time, continue with configuring
FleetStreet. The settings will be saved when you leave FleetStreet.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Old profile ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The profile was saved by an older version of FleetStreet. The settings stored
in FLTSTRT.INI can not be used with this version. A new file will be generated
when you leave FleetStreet.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Delete Message ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
You are about to delete the current message. Deleted messages are not
recoverable.
Press YES to delete the message, press NO if you like to keep it.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Edit Message ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The message has already been processed by Squish and has been sent to the
destination address. The sent message might not be affected by the changes you
make. Refer to the Squish documentation about performing a rescan of the area.
If the message is not local, your downlinks may get changed messages, which is
not desireable in most cases.
Press YES if you want to edit the message anyway, press NO if you don't want to
edit the message.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Discard Message ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
If you press YES the message you have written will not be saved and therefor
will not be sent. The message text will be lost.
Press NO if you want to continue editing.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Discard Message ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
You've requested to leave FleetStreet, but you have not saved the message you
are currently writing. If you leave FleetStreet your message will not be saved
and therefor will not be sent. The message text will be lost.
Press NO if you want to continue editing.
Press YES if you want to leave FleetStreet.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Message info missing ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Your message must have
o name and address of the receipient
o text in the subject line
If one of these is missing, the message can not be saved.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Message text too long ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Squish cannot handle messages that are longer than 16 KB. FleetStreet can
handle longer messages when editing, but when you save them, they must be short
enough for Squish.
See also "Limitations"
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Error saving message ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
An error occured while saving the message. This is usually caused by disk
access errors like write protected disks, not enough disk space or no access
rights.
You may try to solve the problem and try again. If you can't, cancel editing.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.20. Current Name/Address ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Select a name and/or address and press OK. The current address is displayed in
the upper right corner of the main window.
If you like to have more names and addresses, go to the setup and add more
names and addresses. See "Limitations".
If you like to change the default name and address for a specific area, go to
the area list, click on the area using the right mouse button, click on
"Settings...", select a different name and/or address and close the settings
notebook.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.21. Thread list ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Message threads are a number of messages about the same topic. One of these
messages is the beginning of the thread. The others are replies to this message
or replies to other replies.
The thread list displays the messages which are beginnings of threads. A in
front of the message indicates that there are replies to that message. To show
these replies, press on the or press the + key. The plus sign changes to a
indicating that the replies are showing. If a reply itself has replies, the
plus sign is shown again.
In the thread list setup you can specify, which threads area shown in the
thread list. Unread messages are displayed with red text, read messages are
displayed with the color you have assigned to the list using the color palette.
The thread with the current message is always displayed, even if it doesn't
contain unread mail.
Press Expand to expand the branch down from the cursored message.
Note: FleetStreet totally relies on the linkage information within the message
base. If you are using Squish for message linking, the thread list will look
quite unexciting. This is because Squish uses the subject line to link
messages. We recommend SqLink or SqmLink for "real" message linking via the
MSGID kludge. These will give you very nice thread trees in the thread list.
See "Mark all messages" on how to mark all messages in the current area as
"read".
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.21.1. Mark all messages ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
If you haven't used FleetStreet for reading in a particular message base
before, all messages are marked as "unread". Therefore the message thread list
will show you all messages in that area. Because you may have read these
messages before, this menu item provides a way to mark all the messages as
"read", up to the current message. After you've done that, the thread list will
show only messages that are "really" unread, i.e. messages that were added to
this area after you've used this function.
This function is usually only needed after you've switched to FleetStreet and
want to bring "old" message areas up to date. FleetStreet will maintain the
"read" flag automatically in the future.
Press OK if you like to perform this function.
Press CANCEL if you don't like to perform this function.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Unable to load file ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
FleetStreet can not load the file specified because of one of the following
reasons:
o The file does not exist
o The file is too long (max. 500 KB)
o The user does not have access rights to the file
o The file name specifies a directory or a device, but not a file.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Error loading the file ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Select this item to save the header, too. If you deselect this item,
only the message body will be saved.
append to file
Append the message to the file if it already exists.
overwrite file
Overwrite the existing file.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Error saving ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
FleetStreet could not write to the file because of one of the following
reasons:
o The drive or path does not exist
o The user does not have access rights to the file or directory
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Invalid file name ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
FleetStreet could not write to the file because of one of the following
reasons:
o The file name contains characters that are not allowed in file names
o The file name is reserved
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Resend message ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The message you have edited has already been sent before. Press YES if you want
to send the changed message again. Press NO if you don't want to send the
message.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> No device ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
You've set up FleetStreet to print directly to a device, but you haven't
specified a name of the device.
Open the setup notebook and enter a valid device name, e.g. PRN.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Cannot print to device ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
FleetStreet can not print to the device that you've specified. Either the
device is in use by another application at the moment, or the device name is
not valid.
Open the setup notebook and enter a valid device name, e.g. PRN.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Not enough memory ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The nodelist lookup could not be performed because there is not enough memory
to complete the operation.
Strange error though!
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Error opening index file ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The nodelist index file could not be opened. This is usually caused by one of
the following reasons:
o the index file doesn't exist
o the path/filename is not correct
o you don't have access rights for the file
o another process is using the file exclusively
Correct the error and try again.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Error opening data file ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Correct the error and try again.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Error reading index file ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
An error occured while reading the index file. This is usually caused by one of
the following reasons:
o another process is using the parts of the file exclusively
o the file is corrupt
Correct the error and try again.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Error reading data file ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

o the file is corrupt
Correct the error and try again.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> Invalid handle ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The handle that is used for nodelist lookups is not valid. Strange error!
Please check the following:
o Which version of FLTV7.DLL is installed? (old one?)
o Are other processes acessing the nodelist files?
o Is FleetStreet set up correctly?
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.23. Nodelist lookup ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
More than one address was found for the addressed user. Select one of the
addresses shown in the list.
By default, a brief summary of the found entries is shown. You can view the
full nodelist entries by unchecking Brief.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.24. Attached Files ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The Files that you've attached to the message are displayed. For each file the
file name and file size is displayed.
If a file doesn't exist, a "* not found *" is displayed in the status field.
Correct the file name in the subject line then.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Message areas that are only defined in FleetStreet, not in the squish
configuration file. These areas will not be touched by squish.
