                               Note

This is the notes field for the user who's record you are
editing, and may consist of any characters or information you
wish to store there.  (The notes field is not used by TBBS
itself.)
                       Authorization - Priv

This is the privilege level of the user who's record you are
editing.  This number can be from 0 (zero) to 255, and is
inclusive in nature (the higher the setting, the higher the
access).  The precise Priv numbering scheme you use on your
system is your choice and is based on your own needs.

Levels 254 and 255 are Sysop levels, and permit access to private
messages on the system, or any other Sysop-only functions you've
provided.
                Authorization - Access (Ax) Flags

These are the 32 access flags for this user.  They are divided
into four groups of eight each, named A1, A2, A3 and A4.  The
meaning of these flags is decided by you in the design of your 
system.  (See the Understanding How it Works Guide for details on 
access flags.)

X in any position means the flag is ON.
. in any position means the flag is OFF.
                        Limits - Min/Call

This setting controls how many minutes per single call this user 
is allowed remain online.  When this amount of time is exhausted 
on a single call, the user will be disconnected from the system. 

Valid settings are from 0 (zero) to 255 minutes.  0 means time 
per call is not limited by this setting.
                        Limits - Min/24hr

This settings controls how many minutes this user may connect per
24 hour period.  This limit is cumulative across all calls within
a single that day.  When this amount of time has been used in one
day the user cannot logon again until the next day. 

Valid settings are from 0 (zero) to 1440 minutes.  0 means that
a user's time is not limited by this option.
                       Limits - Bytes/24hr

This setting controls the number of bytes of data a user will be 
allowed to download from the system in a 24 hour period.  

Valid settings are from 0 (zero) to 99999999 bytes.  0 means that 
downloads are unlimited.
                       Limits - Calls/24hr

This setting controls the number of calls a user will be allowed 
to make to the system in a 24 hour period.

Valid settings are from 0 (zero) to 255.  0 means that there is 
no limit on the number of calls each 24 hour period.
                        Limits - Exp. Date

This setting designates the date on which this user will expire.
Upon expiration, the user will be handled as though pre-
authorized billing class 0 time has expired.  If you set this
field to 00/00/00 then the user does not have an expiration date.

For a discussion on billing classes and expiration dates, please 
refer to the Understanding How it Works guide.
                   User Settings - Xpert Level

This setting controls the menu expert level of this user, and 
affects the level of prompting the user is provided at the menu. 

0 = Beginner, 1 = Normal, 2 = Expert, 3 = Super Expert

NOTE:  Expert levels apply only when simple, non-ANSI menu 
screens are in use on your system.  They do not apply to 
sophisticated menu interfaces where color and/or graphics boxes 
have been used.
                   User Settings - New Pointers

This setting controls the style of new message pointers this user 
prefers.  

A setting of 1 here is considered more natural by many users and
stores the highest message number read on an area-by-area basis.

A setting of 2 here is considered more accurate by many users and 
stores the lowest numbered message which has not yet been read on 
an area-by-area basis. 
                    User Settings - Ask Submit

This setting controls whether or not the user is prompted with:

     "Submit prepared msg text (Y/N)?"

each time they enter a message.  If prompted, the user may elect 
to upload an ASCII text file as the message text itself in lieu 
of typing the message online.  Without this prompting, the user 
does not have this option.

Press Y here for YES, or N for NO to control whether this prompt 
is displayed to the user.
                    User Settings - Msg Editor

This setting controls which message editor is used by the caller.

A setting of ASK will cause TBBS to ask the user each time 
whether or not he wishes to use the full-screen editor.  A 
setting of LIN will cause TBBS to use the line-oriented editor 
automatically, and FSE will cause TBBS to use the full-screen 
editor automatically.

Press A for ASK, F for FSE, or L for LIN to change this setting.

NOTE:  The full-screen editor can only be used by ANSI/VT-100 
capable users.  If this setting is ASK or FSE and the user
doesn't have ANSI/VT-100, the line-oriented editor is used.
                   User Settings - L/Ed Prompt

This setting controls which type of message input prompting is 
provided when the caller is using the line-oriented message 
editor to enter a message online.

A setting of 1 here means line number only prompting; a setting 
of 2 means bytes remaining and line number prompting; and a 
setting of 3 means plain prompt only.  Refer to the CEDIT chapter
of Reference Manual, Logon Menu, New User Defaults section for a 
discussion of these prompting methods with examples.

screen of the user automatically, based on this setting.

Valid settings are from 10 to 132.
               Terminal Configuration - More/Page

This setting controls the more setting, also called screen or page
length.  The number is measured in lines.

Valid settings are from 0, or 10 to 80.  When set to 0, TBBS will
never pause screen displays (constant scrolling).  When set to
between 10 and 80, TBBS will automatically pause on large text
displays when a screen is filled.
                 Terminal Configuration - Nulls

This setting controls the number of nulls sent by TBBS after each
carriage return or CLS (clear screen) to accommodate the slow
terminal of a user.  This is rarely necessary for a video display,
and is included primarily for older, printing terminals (such as a
Teletype).
            Terminal Configuration - Graphics Toggle

This radio button controls whether or not this user's terminal can
support IBM Graphics characters.  When the button is off (not
filled with a square) TBBS will automatically convert any IBM

terminal or communications software MUST support ANSI or VT-100,
or garbage will be displayed on their screen.

Press the Space Bar or A key to toggle this setting when
in edit mode.
            Terminal Configuration - Line feeds Toggle

This radio button controls whether or not this user's terminal

mode.
               Terminal Configuration - CLS Codes

These six settings designate the ASCII characters which will be
sent to the user to clear their screen each time TBBS needs to do
so.  These characters are decimal ASCII codes, and the six are
sent in sequence.  Common settings are:

   IBM (Plain):    12,  0,  0,  0,  0,  0

NOTE:  This setting has no meaning on systems which do not have
TIMS or the TBBS Net Mail Utilities installed.
                   Net Mail Settings - Debit

This setting stores the number of Net Mail debits the user has
accumulated in pennies (or the lowest currency denominator in your
country).  Each time the user sends a Net Mail message, its cost
is added to this figure based on the cost field of nodelist
entries.  When this total has reached or gone past the credit
setting, the system will not allow any additional Net Mail
messages to be sent (unless the Free toggle is on).

Valid settings are from 0 to 65535.
