busy
Usage: set busy string
Sets your "busy" string. When your busy string is set and people "tell"
something to you, they will get your busy string as a response. Your busy
string (if on) will also be displayed right below your name when someone
"fingers" you. NOTE: Your busy string can be no longer that 45 characters.
Examples of busy strings you might use are:
set busy is really busy right now.
set busy will be back in 5 minutes.
set busy will be idle for a while...
Typing any command cancels your "busy" status; you don't have to clear it
yourself.
It is useful to use an alias for your busy string, if you intend to use it
frequently. For example:
alias idle set busy is away from the keyboard right now
would set your busy string to "is away from the keyboard right now".
