This is very handy, never realized this feature till the other day.
I personally don't care for forwarding the entire @ww and so on, BUT
at the same time I have stuff that I would like to send out to @WW every
so often, so what I used to do was uncomment the ww in my forward.bbs
to specific partners, then forward my stuff, then comment it out again.
Inconvenient, and also it forwards the entire @ww area.
So how does one forward only what they want to forward to @ww ?
Setup an obscure area on your JNOS and post to it, for example :
sp rpr17mhrd at mb
Then in my forward.bbs, I can specify something like this below :
k5dat
#c wisconsin k5dat-7
net k5dat-7
#b10000
.bbs
k5dat
#ww
mb ww
Note the extra parameter 'ww' after the 'mb' area.
This works really really good, the forward writes the @mb to @ww on
the way out. I really like this, thought I would share it to all, in case no
one knew about this - it is actually documented in the original docs.
