Help
An important feature of NetMail/3000’s pc-style menu interface is the on-line help sub- system. You can browse through the help contents by selecting the “ Help” menu topic which will present you with the main help window, allowing you to jump to other topic areas of interest. You can also get context sensitive help (help on whatever area of the program or menu you are on) by hitting the “HELP” function key (f1) while pointing to an item on a menu or window that you want further information on.
Whenever you jump into a “HELP” screen, you will have function keys to get an index of all help topics (the “Index” function key (f1)), as well as the “Cancel” key (f8) which will return you to the program where you left off, and a few other selections. Once you are in a help window, certain words may be accented (in half-bright or inversed video), as above. Each of these “accented” words are “hyper-text links”. What this means is that when you see one of these accented words in the help window, you can use the arrow keys to jump between the words (the cursor will automatically jump between then accented words) and when you come to a word indi- cating a topic you might like further information on, hit the “RETURN” or “Accept” (f6) key, and the help window will automatically jump to that topic area.
When you are done browsing the help information, use the “Cancel” key to return to the
