The LinKT Manual: Dialogs

## Dialoge

Most options are modified using dialogs within LinKT. Here I will describe all dialogs not covered by other sections of this manual.

### BoxCheck

The BoxCheck window can be activated either using the context menu or the CTRL-C hotkey. This window shows a message list received from a packet bbs and allows you to select messages, read, kill or copy them. You can select a message by pressing space. LinKT will send a read command for all selected messages when you enter return or click at the "send" button. Furthermore you can issue the following command on every message by pressing one of the following keys.

R | Send a read command for the selected message immediately
E | Sends a kill (erase for BayCom/DieBox type bbs) for the current messages.
T | Copies the selected message to another destination using the sc (TR for DB) command. LinKT will show a dialog requesting you to enter the destination and flood designator to copy to
| L | Set the lifetime of the current message (works with diebox only)

For the BoxCheck window to work, three preconditions have to be met:

- the layout of the message list has to be specified in boxcheck.dat.
- The layout has to be selected using the settings dialog for the bbs' callsign
- The must been received

If this isn't the case, LinKT pops up an error message (No Checklist data received yet). Go through the above thrre points then and send Jochen your new boxcheck.dat, if you have to modify it.

The BoxCheck feature does not make use of "unproto lists" since the bbs's here doesn't support that and nobody knows anything about it. You have to connect your bbs and get the list using the `"l"` or `"check"` command.
