Changing the message retrieval parameters: At the top of the message view are two text boxes. The one on the left indicates the current filter and, and the one on the right indicates the time duration or the time range, depending on whether you selected to view live updates or just browse through old ones. You can update these fields in the same manner as in the initial connection dialog box described above, in "Getting Some Messages". When you modify a text box, the background will turn yellow to indicate that the modifications are unapplied. You may either hit the enter key to apply the changes or the escape key to revert. Note that you may modify both the filter and time specification. Hitting the enter key in either box will apply the changes from both.
