5.1 Keystroke Combinations in the Arealist Screen

The arealist screen is the screen that normally shows up right after you start MsgEd TE. It lists all areas that you have defined in the configuration file (see section 6.5 Defining Message Areas).

The arealist screen can be navigated with the cursor keys, or you can also navigate through the area list by simply typing in the first few letters of the area name that you are looking for.

In addition, the following commands are available in the arealist screen:

Right

Enter

Enter the selected area

Alt-X

Quit MsgEd TE

*

Alt-T

Scan all message areas for new messages. Depending on your setup, you will have to do this on program startup. The scan process can be interrupted by pressing ESC.

#

Alt-S

Scan message areas for new messages, but only scan areas that have not been scanned perviously. Areas that have not yet been scanned for messages are listed with dashes instead of message numbers in the area list.

The keyboard setup of the Arealist Screen cannot be modified by the user.

Go to the first, previous, next, last section, table of contents.
