    Ctrl-Q????? I use /q to enter quote mode. Might want to try using a slash instead of the Ctrl key. May solve your problem.

    The / commands are pretty universal to most full screen editors so that there is not issues with programs or operating systems that use the ctrl or alt key combination for other things.

    Sorry about this , but i'm fairly new to BBS'ing and still learning
    the ropes. I see that in order to quote the previous message I can
    use the CTRL-Q keyboard combo, however that seems to be the same one

    SlyEdit and other message editors (such as DCT Edit and IceEdit) use Ctrl-Q to toggle quote mode. But as you said, /q can also be used to enter quote mode in SlyEdit.
