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].
