The Terminal Monitor has a variety of messages to keep you informed of its status and that of the query buffer.

When logging in, the Terminal Monitor prints a login message that tells the release number and the login time. Following that message, the dayfile appears.

When the Terminal Monitor is ready to accept input and the query buffer is empty, the message go appears. The message, continue, appears instead if there is something in the query buffer.

The prompt >>editor indicates that you are in the text editor.
