The editor can be accessed in the message bases, e-mail, and the BBS Lister. Below is an explanation of the commands available. 

 1. /A or /Q aborts a message. 
 2. /B takes you to the beginning of the message.
 3. /D will delete the line you specify. It can be ranged (ex.: /D3-6).
 4. /E will take you to the last line of the message.
 5. /G [#] will take you to the line number you specify.  It will print out the line and put your cursor at the end of it.  NOTE: you must /G or /E to get out of the line, or you will automatically drop to the next line in the message.  If you are in buffered mode, the down arrow will drop you to the next line.
 6. /I will insert blank lines BEFORE the line number you specify.  Ranged.
 7. /L will list the lines in the message.  /L* will list the lines with line numbers.  Ranged.
 8. /R will clear the editor and restart the editing session.  Any text you have typed in will be deleted.
 9. /S saves your message and exits you from the editor.
 10. /T changes the title of your message.
 11. /NAME will change your handle if you have the priv bit.
 12. /X turns off echo and allows a faster ASCII upload.  Control-Z to exit.
 13. /V Views your message with ANSI turned on.
 14. Control-R will re-print the line you are on.
 15. Control-W will undelete one character at a time of the line you are on.
 16. Control-X will delete all the text of the line you are on.  Spacebar aborts.
 17. Control-U will un-delete the line you are on.

  To insert Ansi into a message you must be in ANSI mode and have the access to do so.  2AM-BBS uses standard ANSI color codes.  Escape will print as a carat (^) so that you may see what you have typed.
