    //Hello All,//

    How do I reply to a post in an echo? If it's obvious, I've missed it.

    Thanks

    When using the Synchronet default command shell, the command is 'A'. A shown on the "Reading Messages Menu":

    ask your software developer or read the documentation

    Have you considered ChatGPT or a BBS friendly variant?

    If you're referring to the Synchronet class command-shell reading messages prompt, 'R' was already taken for "re-read message". So, now you understand the logic. Other command shells do reverse the 'A' and 'R' commands when appropriate for mimicing other BBS software behavior.
