- [L]ist, [D]elete, [C]ontinue Entering Files, [H]elp, [Enter] = Download :
-
- ROM Brain will allow you to edit the Download File List prior to
- actually downloading files.
-
- You may List the files, Delete 1 or more files, or
- Continue Entering files.
-
- You will see the second prompt shown above, instead of the first,
- if your File List contains the maximum number of files the sysop
- allows you to download. If you wish to continue entering files,
- you will first need to delete 1 or more files from the list.
-
-
- To Delete a file from the list, Select Edit, then Delete. To
- delete a single file, type its file #. To delete a range
- of files, type the starting #, then a '-', then the ending
- #. to delete a series of files, type each # separated by a
- comma.
-
- Examples for Deleting files in the Download List:
-
- 1 Delete a single file
- 1-4 Delete files 1 thru 4
- 1,3,4 Delete files 1, 3, and 4
-
- Note that when entering a range, there is no space between
- the 'dash' and the numbers. Similarly, when entering a
- series of numbers, there is no space between the 'comma' and
- the numbers.
-
- Be careful when entering a series of numbers. You must make
- sure to enter the numbers in order. For instance, 1,2,3,4
- will delete files 1 thru 4, but if you enter 4,3,2,1 or
- 1,3,2,4, only the first file will be correctly deleted. The
- other 3 files that are deleted won't be what you asked for.
- To prevent you from improperly deleting files, if the # of
- the file currently being deleted is less than the # of the
- file that was deleted the previous time, ROM Brain won't delete any
- more files. You will have to re-enter your list in the
- proper order.
-
- Also keep in mind, that as each file is being deleted, all files
- after the deleted file are moved down the list by 1. For instance,
- if you delete file #1, then file #2 will become file #1, file #3
- will become file #2, etc. For this reason, after each deletion,
- you should select [L]ist at the Edit prompt to re-list the files
- prior to deleting any more files.
