1. What's a general reference about zephyr on Athena, including advanced features?
athena% olc stock. Choose option 31.
2. How do I change my zephyr signature?
athena% zctl set zwrite-signature "type new signature here"
3. How can I turn off the messages about people logging on and off?
We'll assume that you're running znol. There are two ways of making this change:
- Permanent: put the line
if (upcase($class) == "LOGIN") then exit endif
near the top of your.zwgc.descfile. - Temporary:
athena% znol off
4. How do I stop getting zephyrs from a specific person?
athena% zctl set ignore <user>
To send a message back to the user indicating that they are being ignored every time they send you a zephyr, use
athena% zpuntuser <user>
5. How do I start receiving messages from that person again?
zunpuntuser <user>
6. How do I copy text from a zephyr?
Hold down shift while selecting text with the left mouse button.
athena% zctl hide
8. How do I become visible again?
athena% zctl unhide
9. How do I click away all the zephyrs I've received?
Hold down the Control key and click the left mouse button. All zephyr windows under the mouse pointer will be removed.
