protocol you wish to use.  If you decide you do not wish to download it,
hit "Q" or "0", and you will not.

U - Upload a file to the current directory.  You will be prompted for the
filename, a short description and an extended description (10 lines maximum).
You will then be shown the transfer protocols by which the file is to be
transferred.  A ? at that prompt will show all available protocols.

prompted for the filename and then shown the file and asked to confirm the
deletion.  All files you remove will also cause any upload credit to be
removed too.

that the file is automatically placed in the Sysop transfer directory, and
is not accessible by other callers.
