30    When given no arguments, the subject request prints or returns the current
31 subject of the unprocessed transaction, if any.  An unprocessed transaction is
32 a transaction that has been "built" by the user, either by exiting the talk
33 request with the \fq request, or by using the qedx or ted requests; but has
34 not yet been entered into a forum.
