I run conf, not bbs. Is that alias linked to picospan (must be, as
everything looks the same here)?

FrontTalk is seriously broken in a number of ways, from going
between conferences with a pager running, to failing to "respond <item>"
from the Ok: prompt, to not displaying the item header when commanded
at the RFP prompt... oh, a zillion ways.
How do I get AWAY from it until it's fixed?

And I can't "set reload" OR abort. Are all of the usual methods
of managing one's read-item list borked in FT?
Yes, I'm pissed off. This should not have been foisted on me
without warning. I have no idea how much damage has occurred,
but I'm already very unhappy about it and Grex's management.

I've changed "bbs" back to "picospan".

BTW, "set reload" doesn't work in fronttalk because fronttalk closes the
backtalk connection as/before it shows you the text.

I agree that bbs should not have been peremptorily set to ft without
determining user preferences. Experimental projects should be optional, not
defaults.

Wasn't cross, who is a new member of the staff, warned against acting without
taking into consideration the advice of more experienced staffers?

Whoa, dude, remember that it was gelinas who deleted your accounts for posting
/etc/passwd files.

Gelinas was wrong then, but I'm talking about when cross killed your account
for something *I* had done.

Anyone reading coop could learn that 'picospan' would fetch picospan when bbs
was switched to fronttalk. I have not had any problems with ft yet. You can
even make an alias for 'picospan' if it is too long to type easily.

I don't notice a difference with ft being set to bbs. The twit filter still
works and that's the best part.

The people who have complaints about fronttalk might want to mention those
bugs in the item created for that purpose in the Garage conference.
