---|
| 17 | .I Discuss |
---|
| 18 | is a user-interface program to a networked conferencing system. It |
---|
| 19 | provides the concept of "meetings", which a user may attend. Users |
---|
| 20 | may post "transactions" (short pieces of text) which may be read out |
---|
| 21 | of the meeting. The |
---|
| 22 | .I Discuss |
---|
| 23 | user interface is heavily influenced by the Multics |

| 25 | conferencing system. |
---|
| 26 | |
---|
| 27 | The commands accepted may be listed by using the "?" command once in |
---|
| 28 | discuss. There is also a "help" command which provides help on a |
---|
| 29 | command once inside the program. |
---|
| 30 | Type "help commandname" to get information on using a command. |
---|
| 31 | The "quit" command exits discuss. |
---|

---|
| 33 | For an introduction to using this system, consult the document "Using |
