** September 1991 **
Mailbase is the JANET electronic mail based group information exchange
service which allows groups of users to manage their own discussion
lists and to share information. The full-screen service allows simple
on-line browsing of the publicly-available part of this information.
The copyright for the information stored is held either by the authors
or by the NISP Project.
To quit if you have problems: Press "Control" and "C" together.
This full-screen interface to Mailbase uses "Ingres Forms". These will
be shown on the next screen.
To make a query you will need to:
o Position the cursor over the data which you want to access
o Select a command from the menu line by either:
Using the function key shown next to the command name
Or if your terminal does not have "function keys":
Use the "menu" key (often the "ESC" key") to move the cursor
to the command line at the bottom of the screen.
Type the command name (or the unique first letter(s) of its
name) on the command line.
The key mappings for your particular terminal may be seen by choosing
the "Help" menu item followed by the "Keys" menu item. Note the
settings for: the "menu" key (usually the ESC key)
"cursor up", "cursor down", "forward a page"
Help is available at all stages.
For a quick exit if you have problems: Press "Control" and "C" together.
