=== 0^SET/DX^Allow DX messages to come out on your terminal
=== 0^UNSET/DX^Stop DX messages coming out on your terminal
-=== 0^SET/DXGRID^Allow Grid Squares on the end of DX announcements
-=== 0^UNSET/DXGRID^Stop Grid Squares on the end of DX announcements
+=== 0^SET/DXGRID^Allow QRA Grid Squares on the end of DX announcements
+=== 0^UNSET/DXGRID^Stop QRA Grid Squares on the end of DX announcements
A standard feature which is enabled in version 1.43 and above is
that if the spotter's grid square is known it is output on the end
of a DX announcement (there is just enough room). Some user programs
YOU DO NOT NEED TO USE THIS COMMAND IF YOU ARE CONNECTED VIA AX25.
+=== 0^SET/EMAIL <email> ...^Set email address(es) and forward your personals
+=== 0^UNSET/EMAIL^Stop personal msgs being forwarded by email
+If any personal messages come in for your callsign then you can use
+these commands to control whether they are forwarded onto your email
+address. To enable the forwarding do something like:-
+
+ SET/EMAIL mike.tubby@somewhere.com
+
+You can have more than one email address (each one separated by a space).
+Emails are forwarded to all the email addresses you specify.
+
+You can disable forwarding by:-
+
+ UNSET/EMAIL

=== 0^SET/HERE^Tell the system you are present at your terminal
=== 0^UNSET/HERE^Tell the system you are absent from your terminal
SET/HOMENODE gb7djk
=== 8^SET/HOPS <call> ann|spots|route|wwv|wcy <n>^Set hop count
+=== 8^UNSET/HOPS <call> ann|spots|route|wwv|wcy^Unset hop count
Set the hop count for a particular type of broadcast for a node.
This command allows you to set up special hop counts for a node
Set SHOW/HOPS for information on what is already set. This command
creates a filter and works in conjunction with the filter system.
+You can unset the hops with command UNSET/HOPS. For example:-
+
+ unset/hops gb7djk ann
+ unset/hops gb7mbc spots
+
+
=== 9^SET/ISOLATE^Isolate a node from the rest of the network
Connect a node to your system in such a way that you are a full protocol
member of its network and can see all spots on it, but nothing either leaks
either logout and login again (if you are on a console) or use the
SYSOP command.
+=== 0^SET/PASSWORD^Set your own password
+This command only works for a 'telnet' user (currently). It will
+only work if you have a password already set. This initial password
+can only be set by the sysop.
+
+When you execute this command it will ask you for your old password,
+then ask you to type in your new password twice (to make sure you
+get it right). You may or may not see the data echoed on the screen
+as you type, depending on the type of telnet client you have.
+
=== 9^SET/PASSWORD <callsign> <string>^Set a users password
The password for a user can only be set by a full sysop. The string
-can contain any characters but any spaces are removed (you can type in
-spaces - but they won't appear in the password). You can see the
-result with STAT/USER.
+can contain any characters.
+
+The way this field is used depends on context. If it is being used in
+the SYSOP command context then you are offered 5 random numbers and you
+have to supply the corresponding letters. This is now mainly for ax25
+connections.
+
+If it is being used on incoming telnet connections then, if a password
+is set or the:
+
+ set/var $main::passwdreq = 1
+
+command is executed in the startup script, then a password prompt is
+given after the normal 'login: ' prompt.
+
+=== 9^UNSET/PASSWORD <call> ...^Delete (remove) a user's password
+This command allows the sysop to completely delete and remove a
+password for a user.
=== 5^SET/SPIDER <call> [<call>..]^Make the callsign an DXSpider node
Tell the system that the call(s) are to be treated as DXSpider node and
fed new style DX Protocol rather normal user commands.
-=== 9^SET/SYS_QRA <locator>^Set your cluster QRA locator
-=== 0^SET/QRA <locator>^Set your QRA locator
+=== 9^SET/SYS_QRA <locator>^Set your cluster QRA Grid locator
+=== 0^SET/QRA <locator>^Set your QRA Grid locator
Tell the system what your QRA (or Maidenhead) locator is. If you have not
done a SET/LOCATION then your latitude and longitude will be set roughly
correctly (assuming your locator is correct ;-). For example:-
Tell the system where you are. For example:-
SET/QTH East Dereham, Norfolk
+=== 9^SET/REGISTER <call> ...^Mark a user as registered
+=== 9^UNSET/REGISTER <call> ...^Mark a user as not registered
+Registration is a concept that you can switch on by executing the
+
+ set/var $main::regreq = 1
+
+command (usually in your startup file)
+
+If a user is NOT registered then, firstly, instead of the normal
+motd file (/spider/data/motd) being sent to the user at startup, the
+user is sent the motd_nor file instead. Secondly, the non registered
+user only has READ-ONLY access to the node. The non-registered user
+cannot use DX, ANN etc.
+
+The only exception to this is that a non-registered user can TALK or
+SEND messages to the sysop.
+
=== 0^SET/TALK^Allow TALK messages to come out on your terminal
=== 0^UNSET/TALK^Stop TALK messages coming out on your terminal
=== 1^SHOW/ISOLATE^Show list of ISOLATED nodes
-=== 9^SHOW/LOCKOUT^Show the list of locked out or excluded callsigns
+=== 9^SHOW/LOCKOUT <prefix>|ALL^Show the list of locked out or excluded callsigns
=== 8^SHOW/LOG [<callsign>]^Show excerpts from the system log
This command outputs a short section of the system log. On its own
Show the name and location where every program module was load from. This
is useful for checking where you think you have loaded a .pm file from.
-=== 0^SHOW/QRA <locator> [<locator>]^Show distance between locators
-=== 0^SHOW/QRA <lat> <long>^Convert latitude and longitude to a locator
+=== 0^SHOW/QRA <locator> [<locator>]^Show distance between QRA Grid locators
+=== 0^SHOW/QRA <lat> <long>^Convert lat/long to a QRA Grid locator
This is a multipurpose command that allows you either to calculate the
distance and bearing between two locators or (if only one locator is
given on the command line) the distance and beraing from your station
and returns any information available for that callsign. This service
is provided for users of this software by http://www.qrz.com
+=== 9^SHOW/REGISTERED [<prefix>]^Show the registered users
+
=== 0^SHOW/ROUTE <callsign> ...^Show the route to the callsign
This command allows you to see to which node the callsigns specified are
connected. It is a sort of inverse sh/config.
