- _w_r_i_t_e copies lines from your terminal to that of another user. When
- first called, it sends the message:
-
- MMMMeeeessssssssaaaaggggeeee ffffrrrroooommmm _y_o_u_r_n_a_m_e ((((ttttttttyyyy??)))) [ _d_a_t_e ]............
-
- to the person you want to talk to. When it has successfully completed
- the connection, it also sends two bells to your own terminal to indicate
- that what you are typing is being sent.
-
- The recipient of the message should write back at this point.
- Communication continues until an end of file is read from the terminal,
- an interrupt is sent, or the recipient has executed "mesg n". At that
- point _w_r_i_t_e writes EEEEOOOOTTTT on the other terminal and exits.
-
- If you want to write to a user who is logged in more than once, the _l_i_n_e
- argument may be used to indicate which line or terminal to send to (e.g.,
- ttttttttyyyy00000000); otherwise, the first writable instance of the user found in
- ////vvvvaaaarrrr////aaaaddddmmmm////uuuuttttmmmmpppp is assumed and the following message posted:
-
- _u_s_e_r is logged on more than one place.
- You are connected to "_t_e_r_m_i_n_a_l".
- Other locations are:
- _t_e_r_m_i_n_a_l
-
- Permission to write may be denied or granted by use of the _m_e_s_g(1)
- command. Writing to others is normally allowed by default. Certain
- commands, such as _p_r(1) disallow messages in order to prevent
- interference with their output. However, if the user has super-user
- permissions, messages can be forced onto a write-inhibited terminal.
-
- If the character !!!! is found at the beginning of a line, _w_r_i_t_e calls the
- shell to execute the rest of the line as a command.
-
- _wwww_rrrr_iiii_tttt_eeee processes supplementary code set characters according to the locale
- specified in the _LLLL_CCCC______CCCC_TTTT_YYYY_PPPP_EEEE environment variable [see _LLLL_AAAA_NNNN_GGGG on _eeee_nnnn_vvvv_iiii_rrrr_oooo_nnnn(5)].
- It will detect non-printable characters before sending them to the user's
- terminal. Control characters will appear as a `_^^^^' followed by the
- appropriate ASCII character; characters with the high-order bit set will
- appear in meta notation. For example, `_\\\\_0000_0000_3333' is displayed as `_^^^^_CCCC' and
- `_\\\\_3333_7777_2222' as `_MMMM_----_zzzz'.
-
- The following protocol is suggested for using _w_r_i_t_e: when you first
- _w_r_i_t_e to another user, wait for them to _w_r_i_t_e back before starting to
- send. Each person should end a message with a distinctive signal (i.e.,
- ((((oooo)))) for ``over'') so that the other person knows when to reply. The
