Jnos Operators Guideby John Martin KF8KK Introduction

| Using a Jnos packet node can be either a rewarding or
frustrating experience, your choice.
The Jnos software is capable of many amazing features, few of which are fully understood by those who use the systems on a casual basis. My goal on these pages is to shed some light on some of the capabilities that Jnos can provide. Because Jnos gives the system operator a rather wide latitude on how the system can be configured, some of the commands I will describe may not be available on the node you intend to use. In other cases the commands may be available but the system operator has modified their behavior somewhat.

| Please also understand that Jnos allows the system
operator to create new command 'aliases', that are unique to that
particular system.
These custom commands appear ahead of the standard commands in the 'alphabet soup' command prompt. Custom commands created by a system operator are usually designed to provide an added convenience and functionality to the operators and are deserving of your attention. This operators guide is meant to be a quick course in USING jnos, not in setting up Jnos. It is also meant to be QUICK and will therefore not go into minute detail on all the features you may find in Jnos, or into some of the functions that are rare to find configured in a Jnos system. The 'official' listing of the Jnos operators commands is an appendix at the bottom of the (rather large) jnos.doc file. There is a highly abbreviated text file version called mbox-cmds.txt also available.I've taken the Jnos Operators commands out of the larger official document and created two versions, at least one of which should be handy for you to use. jnos-ops-cmds1.pdf or jnos-ops-cmds1.doc contain a full listing of the available Jnos commands accessible to the users (if enabled by the system operator).
