  13. Aside from the message from the Talk Daemon that flashes across the screen,
  14. is there a way to find out if you are being fingered.  For example, is there
  15. a file somewhere that has the information in it?  Is there a new /dev file
  16. being created?  I would like to know because I am trying to have a shell
  17. scripte respond to talk requests.
