w
The following is a range:
2,3,4-7,18-6
And means the following: 2 then 3 then 4 to 7 then 18 to 6 (in backwards order).
The comma separates ranges. The dash allows you to include more than one number at a time, as long as they are in numerical order.
Ranges can be used in the following places:
1. From main menu. R1,3,6-10,15- will let you read new messages on bases 1, 3, 6 through 10, and 15 to the end of the bases. You can also range a [Q]uickscan.
2. In the message bases. The asterisk can be used to read new messages on individual message bases. R* and Q* will read/quickscan all new messages on the base you are currently on. R1- will start at message one and continue to the end of the base. R50-40 will read messages 50 through 40, in backwards order. R*,35-40 will read the new messages, then messages 35-40.
3. In the editor, trivia, voter, and Files, the same ranges work but a reverse range will not display in reverse order. For example, "L1-2,3,12-6" in the Files section will list sections 1 through 2, then 3, then 6 to 12. It will not reverse order in the Files section.
NOTE: Any item marked "Ranged" in any other help file can be ranged in the above ways.
