Aargh! I have three papers due tomorrow and everyone's zwriting me! Help!

If you want to hide for a while, you can type zctl hide from the Unix prompt, or just hide from the zctl prompt, and it will look like you're not logged in. However, zephyrs sent to you will reach you. When you're ready to face the world again, zctl unhide will restore your place. You can also type zctl wg_shutdown. This will prevent any messages from reaching you. zctl wg_startup will let you receive messages again.
