- CHAT, John Mustain 12/20/86
-
- CHAT is a program, written in C, that performs a single, simple task,
- that of taking input from the keyboard and displaying to the screen.
-
- Why? For two reasons. 1st, it provides a chat function which is
- missing from the popular program REMOTE. Using CHAT, users at both
- consoles can talk back and forth, which is sometimes useful. It can be
- most useful if the program being run has a DOS shell, so the program can
- be temporarily exited, CHAT executed, and the program returned to.
-
- Chat is also useful for allowing the younger kids in the house have a go
- with the keyboard without worry of lousing up the system.
-
- To run CHAT enter:
-
- CHAT [Enter]
-
- and begin entering your text. To end, use either Ctrl-C or F6 [enter].
