Subject: Spy node from inside BBS session

Hi all,

I was just playing around with my Synchronet BBS, when I came upon the Sysop commands. When I checked it, there was a command to Spy a Node from inside the BBS session.

I tried it by logging in as Guest in another terminal, and then from my Sysop terminal, I spied using the ;SPY <node> command. It was successful; I was able to see the other node's activities and I can even do remote control.

However, I wanted to exit the spy mode, but I don't know how to do it from the BBS. Is there a keystroke/command that I can use to stop spying the node?

What I just did in the meantime is to disconnect the Sysop terminal, but I'd like to know if there is a keystroke or command to do this.

Thanks.
