!PozChat/Files/Help/visibility
This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

Visibility ========== Users can make themselves invisible with the .invis command. This means that they become invisible to users with a privilege level less than 9. Invisible users can not speak, and they in turn can not be whisperd to, gagged or ignored by people who cant see them. Visibility is achieved again by use of the .vis command. When the .invis command is used you appear to those that can not see you to log out of the talker, by means of a disconnection message. A log in message is also faked when you re-emerge.
