      The following describes each field that you may see on the status 
      screen:

          @X0BCaller Num: @X03 This is the number of calls that the bulletin board 
          system you are calling has answered since operation of the system 
          began.

          @X0BLst Date On: @X03 The last date you called the system is stored in this 
          field.
 
          @X0BExpire Date: @X03 This field contains the date at which your account 
          will expire. If you have no expiration date then this field will 
          contain the word None. Some bulletin board systems set their users 
          to expire at a certain date. When you are "expired" your security 
          level is usually dropped until you follow the instructions that are 
          displayed to you.

          @X0B# Times On: @X03 This value shows how many times you have called this 
          system.

          @X0BPage Length: @X03 The page length setting allows you to configure how 
          many lines will be displayed on your screen before you want PCBoard 
          to issue a More? prompt and ask you if you are ready for the next 
          screen.  This value may be changed by using the P user command.

          @X0BExpert Mode: @X03 If expert mode is turned on, an On is displayed. 
          Otherwise, you are in novice mode and an Off is displayed.  You may 
          toggle expert mode by using the X user command.

          @X0BSecurity Lv: @X03 This value is the security level that you have been 
          assigned on this system.  The bulletin board system uses this value 
          to control what you can and cannot do on the  system.

          @X0B# Downloads: @X03 This is the total number of files you have downloaded 
          from the system.

          @X0B# Uploads: @X03 This is the total number of files you have uploaded to 
          the system.

          @X0BBytes Avail: @X03 This field shows you how many bytes you can download 
          for the remainder of the day.  If this value is set to Unlimited 
          then you may download as much as your time allows.

          @X0BL/Msg. Read: @X03 This field contains the last message number you have 
          read in the current conference.  As you change conferences this 
          value will be updated.

          @X0BHigh Msg. #:@X03  This value is the highest message number in the 
          conference you are currently in.

          @X0BActive Msgs:@X03  This value is the number of messages that are active 
          in the conference you are currently in.  While you will see that 
          each conference has a range of messages (e.g. 332-982) some of the 
          messages in that range may have been deleted. Therefore, you cannot 
          subtract the low message number from the high message number to get 
          the actual number of active messages.

          @X0BTr/Protocol: @X03 This is the name of the protocol you have selected as 
          your default transfer protocol.  If None is displayed, you will be 
          prompted for a transfer protocol to use each time you start a file 
          transfer.

      If you happen to be logging in as the SysOp (as record #1 in the USERS 
      file) then two additional lines will be displayed to you:

          @X0BDefined #'s: @X03 When you setup a conference, you are asked how many 
          message blocks you want for the particular conference.  If you 
          enter 4 in that field, then you will be allowed to have a range of 
          4096 active messages in the conference.  This field will list the 
          number of active messages that can be in the current conference.  
          This number is obtained by taking the message blocks as defined in 
          the conference and multiplying it by 1024.

          @X0BFree Msg #s: @X03 Displays the number of messages that you may add to 
          the current conference before exceeding the number of message 
          blocks that you have defined.  For example, if your low message 
          number is 4362, your high message number is 8257, and you have 
          defined the conference for 6 message blocks (6144 messages) then 
          you will have 2248 free messages before you exceed your defined 
          range of active messages.
