A reference for SysOps of the DXSpider DXCluster program.\r
for example). To do this, isolate the node in the normal way and use\r
an <em>acc/spot >call< all</em> filter to override the isolate. \r

+It is now possible to JOIN a group and have network wide conferencing to that
+group. DXSpider does not (and probably will not) implement the AK1A
+conference mode as this seems very limiting, is hardly used and doesn't seem
+to work too well anyway.
+
+This system uses the existing ANN system and is compatible with both other
+DXSpider nodes and AK1A clusters (they use ANN/<group>).
+
+You can be a member of as many "groups" as you want. To join a group type:-
+
+<tscreen><verb>
+ JOIN FOC (where FOC is the group name)
+</verb></tscreen>
+
+To leave a group type:-
+
+<tscreen><verb>
+ LEAVE FOC
+</verb></tscreen>
+
+You can see which groups you are in by typing:-
+
+<tscreen><verb>
+ STAT/USER
+</verb></tscreen>
+
+and you can see whether your mate is in the group, if he connects to the
+same node as you, by typing:-
+
+<tscreen><verb>
+ STAT/USER g1tlh
+</verb></tscreen>
+
+To send a message to a group type:-
+
+<tscreen><verb>
+ CHAT FOC hello everyone
+</verb></tscreen>
+
+or
+
+<tscreen><verb>
+ CH #9000 hello I am back
+</verb></tscreen>

+all groups. If you use a group name then it will show only chat for
+that group.
