Input Mode Shows which input mode you currently are<br />

using. The field will either be Telex or ASCII. In Telex the<br />

editor will only allow you to insert characters that are<br />

represented in the Baudot alphabet.<br />

Filename Shows the name of the file on disk holding the<br />

present text. When starting out on a new message this field<br />

will be empty until you have saved your message for the<br />

first time.<br />

Character count Indicates the number of characters in your<br />

message at any time. Ple<strong>as</strong>e note that a new line is only<br />

counted <strong>as</strong> one character. When saving the message, a new<br />

line will be saved <strong>as</strong> two characters, CR LF (Carriage Return<br />

Line Feed).<br />

Insert mode Shows whether you will be inserting or<br />

overwriting characters when you type. The mode is toggled<br />

by pressing Ins on the numeric keypad. Make sure that Num<br />

Lock is off.<br />

Margin Shows the position of the right margin of your<br />

message. The default setting is at 69, which is the<br />

maximum line length that can be transmitted through the<br />

Telex Network.<br />

5.3.2 CREATING A MESSAGE<br />

1. Choose File (Alt, F) and New Telex or New<br />

ASCII.<br />

If you are going to send the message to a telex<br />

destination, you should select New Telex to prevent<br />

you from using characters that cannot be transmitted<br />

through the Telex network. In all other c<strong>as</strong>es it will be<br />

most convenient to use the ASCII mode.<br />
