F)iles:  The "F" command takes you to the Files System.  Files are 
collections of text, programs, graphics, data bases, and other types of 
information stored in digital form. The Files System allows you to 
upload and download. Uploading is the sending of files from your 
computer system to RBBS-PC. Downloading is the transfer of files from 
RBBS-PC to your computer's memory, diskette, or printer.  

Tips:
1. RBBS-PC is built on the ideal that we will learn and help one 
another. You are strongly encouraged to upload files that you believe 
will be of value to other users.  

2. You should use the L)ist, N)ew, and S)earch commands to look for
files that you would like to download after you enter the Files System.  

3. Files can be sent across phone lines at very rapid rates.  Three 
hundred baud (baud is a measure of transmission speed) modems transmit 
approximately 30 characters per second, 1200 baud modems transmit at 120 
characters per second, and 2400 baud modems transmit at 240 characters 
per second.
