Welcome, newcomers and veterans, to the Grex music conference!!
We talk about all sorts of music here, as well as the technologies
and business of music. Feel free to start a discussion on a topic
you are interested in, and see who joins in.
If you have any questions or suggestions, please send e-mail to
your active hosts, krj@cyberspace.org or scott@cyberspace.org
NEWCOMERS: If you came to Grex via telnet or direct
dial, here are my suggestions for getting up to speed with
our antique Picospan conferencing system. (You might want to print
this text out, or make a few quick notes to have a cheat sheet.)
* at the 'OK:' prompt, type read since 2/1
to read discussions in the conference since February 1.
Replace that 2/1 date with a date between two weeks and two months
ago, depending on how much you want to read.
* Next, at the 'OK:' prompt, type browse
to see all the subject lines. Note down the item numbers of any
subject lines which look promising. To read item 3,
the Ragtime Music item, type read 3
* At the bottom of each item, the prompt will read 'Respond or pass?'
There is a third choice: forget
Use 'forget' whenever you find an item too boring to bother with,
and that item will never be shown to you again.
* To get back to see item 1 & these instructions again,
from the 'OK:' prompt, type: r 1
* To start a new item, the command is enter
and at any prompt you can type help
((If you came to Grex through the Web interface, none of these
commands apply to you. Backtalk, the Web interface, is pretty
intuitive for most users.))
