Information to be transmitted is entered into the transmit pane by direct keystroke; to clear information entered into the transmit pane, click the X button on the transmit pane's right margin. To increase the number of text lines visible in the transmit pane, click the resize button on the transmit pane's right margin.

To immediately terminate transmission, click the Abort button in the transmit panel, or strike the Esc key. Any un-transmitted information is discarded.
