<b>Letters</b> - A. Lebedev,
                 Letters.

Know why such a small newspaper,
as "ZxNews", letters started to arrive already
two weeks?

Right! Fido, and only Fido!

It's one thing to write a letter on paper, buy envelopes and 
stamps, go to the post, and quite another - to use the network

Mail - netmail'om or, more simply,
soap. Scored his tekstik in any editor and a few hours this 
tekstik already read edition ...


Unfortunately, we can not publish the whole message - not 
enough space. But all the letters we will get back, if not in 
the pages of "ZxNews" 'and so in the echo ...


The first letter - from Pavel Kharitonov from
Petersburg, and that's what he wrote:

[Begin msg from Paul Haritonov]

God alone knows how wide ayditoriya.
So far, dymaem, not very big, however,
I believe, went to a newspaper. Already do not call
Only people with a modem, but without him ...

[Skipped]

 PH> 2. You and you're going to continue to
 PH> tendency weekly newspaper? ..
 PH> And then chegoy - I can not believe ...
 PH> Otkyda you just take the materials
 PH> bydete ... : ()

And bydem continue. Material until
is, its even in excess. Else be the default case
that the editors did not yspevaet it completely
process. Hence the restrictions on the number of texts - 142 
sectors per room ... 

[Skipped]

 PH> 3. How is the idea about

 Hmm, not too much-if questions srazy?
Each of them pulls edak to pary-troyky

Spektryme y me has finally arrived works. While in
test mode, which means that even
Allah knows the exact time as ...

And connect'a it is necessary "Macromodem" v2.03 and above.

See the article "BBS on Speccy - it's real."

And if on the PC, then here the complexity of such
sort: No IBM-Vicomm'a. It is not known,
find-whether we do it ... And people willing to put themselves 
in Vicomm-bbs - chock-full!


At the expense of Haeys'a we finally arrived repeatedly wrote. 
Hy did not work none of Omeg'i on It ... And what do you 
propose in this slychae pyblikovat? Else be the default case, 
which finally arrived potihonky connected to the creation of 
"News" 'ki and hayesniki. That they and should we submit 
articles ... 

[Skipped]

 PH> modem without the BBC is not modem.

Rights to all 100!

[Skipped]

 PH> I looked at your Hit - Parade

 PH> place! Kaaaaaashmar!
 PH> see such blasphemy on
 PH> page (?) Of the newspaper to me
 PH> just a meal, and according to this offer
 PH> hit his Gum-parade ...

Well, how many people, so many opinions. In
the first issue we put the hit parade of the best games in the 
history of Speccy. And the UFO-2 on the right to occupy the 
second place there, after the Elite. And since the third issue, 
we publish the top-games, provided us software vendors. This

much easier for everyone and a lot more urgent ...

[Skipped]

 PH> Now for the video-audio-charts,
 PH> so prematurely retired in
 PH> history. In my IMHO,
 PH> book-hit parade was superfluous, but here
 PH> audio-video ... Personally I am for the "best
 PH> foreign films "and for" best
 PH> bands / artists!

The thing is that while only you
supported the idea of ​​"best films / best music".
The rest of the readers believe that this
in Zx-newspaper should not do it ... Now, if
anyone else to support you - Well,
and then the hit parade of such will. And we, in
Basically, do not mind ...

[End of msg]

So, before you - a common fidoshnoe
letter. As promised in prededuschem room, today we publish an 
article about how do kvoting or decorate the letter,

sent over the network. Share their experiences with you another 
one of our regular reader - Andrei Lebedev. Some examples were 
replaced by the edited ... 

[Begin]

Each letter consists of several parts:

1. Cap. Automatically be placed in
beginning and end of your email program
on the bbs. At the beginning of the letter indicated by
Who is who directed the station address,
date / time of departure, the subject. In the end -
data on the bbs (origin).

Example hats netmail'a:


  From: Andrey Listin

      Receive Chst
Orig: (2:5030 / 222.22)
Who: Petr Petrov

      Msg # 109, 08-Sep-1996 00:19:23
Subject: Good night

2. The actual text of the letter. All the letters usually begin 
with a greeting. At this point you have no limits. You want - 
just write "Hello!", You want - something like: "Welcome, O 
dear (ND) All! "Etc.


Next comes a small "entry", the purpose
which - to recall the correspondent of
how about that, actually, talking. However, if you write your 
first letter on this subject, then in the introduction there is 
no need. 

Example entry:

One day, namely 20-Aug-96, 23:08,
Igor Majorov wrote to All on the theme "Holy smoke" ...

3. Then follows the letter itself. If it
the first on this topic, you are viewing it as
plain text file. However, if it
reply to some letter, then he looked
will be approximately the same as that posted above msg Pavel 
Kharitonov. 

For example:


                  ----
[Skipped]

 PH> 1. I wonder how you're going to
 PH> rassprostronyat ZX NEWS?

We extend it finally arrived. Through bbs -
free, y all sellers - for
money. But we do not idyt (unfortunately).


                  ----
"Skip" in English means "jump". In
Fido-msg "[skipped]" means that some text has been "cut" from
letter to which you are responsible. And
cut out verbatim. This approach to
clearance letters is necessary in order to make it clear what 
is at stake is not only you, but your correspondent, and

also all the other people who have it
read.

If you quote someone's email, be sure to specify at the 
beginning of each line the initials of its author, for example, 
PH - Paul Haritonov, and do not forget to

one, two, three, etc. ticks (>).
Each such check indicates a
How many letters on this subject have used this passage.

For example, you received a letter like this:


                  ----
[Skipped]

 PN>>> Hmm, hard case ...

 IN>> Sam volunteered

 PN> Well, I'll remember ...

Well, just feet do not hurt:)


                  ----
The answer to it would look like:

[Skipped]

 PN>>>> Hmm, hard case ...

 IN>>> Sam volunteered

 PN>> Well, I'll remember ...

 IN> OK, only the legs do not hurt:)

Okay, I will not. Came to you a hundred men in two hundred 
foreign cars ... 


                  ----
Ie you will automatically add the ">" to
prededuschey each quotation. What you want
add contact from the beginning of the line, without
any initials.

But you are right and some podsokratit
strings of letters to come, if you think that without them is 
not lost "thread" conversation.


For example, you can answer this way:


                  ----
[Skipped]

 PN>> Well, I'll remember ...

 IN> OK, only the legs do not hurt:)

Okay, I will not. Came to you a hundred men in two hundred 
foreign cars ... 


                  ----
Thus here is kvoting letters in FidoNet. We hope that this small
retreat will help you quickly learn the
on the network, as well as to avoid many
mistakes that so often make a novice ... :)


                  ----
In conclusion I would like to say thank you
to everyone who sent us their letters. Sydya
on your feedback and tomy as the cost fresh numbers - we do 
nyzhno case. 

So call, write, mylte. Rygayte,
Praise, sovetyyte, please ask. We are very
hope that any reader will soon be able to
proud to say - "This is my newspaper."

How she loved to write the whole Soviet press:
"Workers of all countries ..."
