I can't find where to edit long text on the BBS (with Titan). Is this feature exists somewhere or i can replace text only by using regular 1024 bytes only? Thanks.

Sometimes, this interaction with trivial 1024 bytes makes my brain feel overwhelmed.

You need to start to draft your comment by using a single backslash "\" and then you can upload a long comment using titan.

In the draft composer, there are a couple of ways to edit text via Titan (short or long). These are explained further on the BBS Help page.

Replace with Titan

Click on "Replace Text" of a text segment, but instead of entering the new text, enter just a colon:

:

This will redirect to a Titan URL that does the text replacement as "long text" via Titan.

Manual raw edit

Instead of entering a colon, you can also enter a backslash:

\

This downloads a raw version of the text segment, so you can then do a manual "Edit with Titan" action in your client. In other words, the contents of the page are used as the prefilled input of the Titan upload.

Titan edit

If your client supports the Titan "edit" URL parameter (e.g., a recent release of Lagrange), go to BBS Settings and enable the "Edit text with Titan" option. Now in the composer all text segments will have an "Edit Text" action instead that use Titan to do a complete download + modify + upload sequence.
