What is TFE?
     ------------
     If you use Telix, you need TFE.  Telix is the best telecommunications
     program around; but like most such programs, when it comes to updating,
     adding, deleting or any other activity involving the contents of your
     dialing directories, it leaves a lot to be desired.  For instance, to
     change the password for one BBS, you have to point to that directory
     entry, type E, hit ENTER enough times to get past EVERY other field,
     and finally change the entry.  Want to create a new entry that's almost
     identical to an existing one?  Fine, just enter all the same data all
     over again, then hit the Toggle key enough times to make sure you got
     it right.  If one field was wrong, prepare to abuse the ENTER key
     again.  But there is a better way: TelixFonEd (TFE).

     TFE gives you easier, more complete control over the content and
     arrangement of your Telix version 3.0 (or higher) dialing directories
     (FON files).

     Using TFE, you can:

          o    Sort any part (or all) of a dialing directory on any field,
               in ascending or descending order.
          o    Insert and delete entries at random.
          o    Copy or move a range of entries from one location in a direc-
               tory to another.
          o    Write part of a directory (or the entire directory) to an-
               other FON file.
          o    Import (merge) another FON file into the file currently being
               edited.
          o    Print selected entries or all entries to a file or printer.
          o    Edit any field in the directory in a simple, intuitive full-
               screen format (no more ENTERing through every field in an
               entry just to change the password).
          o    Pop up menus for many fields (Protocols, Terminal types,
               etc.) -- on request, or automatically whenever you enter
               invalid data.
          o    Create new FON files from scratch.
          o    Clean up corrupted FON files.
          o    Merge two or more FON files, combining duplicate entries into
               one.
          o    Store additional information about each entry in a FON file,
               such as "Sysop Name" or "Hours of Operation."
          o    Change the values of an entire group of fields with one com-
               mand.
          o    And more!
