Tips

First, look at the blackboard. The Categories are in bright cyan. The values for Index are in regular cyan.

You cannot add an empty Category. To create a new category, add it and its first item, like this:

+list/add <cat>=<item>

For example,

+list/add Entrees=T-bone steak

The new entry will be in Category "Entrees" and will be index 1 in that category.

If you delete an item in a category, items after it will have a new Index value. For example, if your category "Entrees" has 5 Items, and you delete Item 4, then the last item, Item 5, will become the new Item 4.

WARNING! Blackboards are portable. Anyone can take them. However, only those with permission can modify the blackboard.
