How would I determine this ?  I was connected via SyncTerm I believe, if not
it was ftelnet. I'll repeat the action i both.

I enter text on first line , and /? on second line in either syncterm or ftelnet connected to my bbs. toolazy.synchro.net:2323 and it returns to next line without help displayed.
I type /s on 3rd line and it saves message successfully.
