- Hello
-
- Can anyone tell me what the parameters are for PHONE? Last year I wrote a
- program that could dump _any_ message on someone elses screen. What I did
- is I changed the fieldname that contains the username of who is calling you.
- So instead of: BRUIFAL is phoning you. It would say anything I wanted to say
- by using the backspace to go to the beginning of the line and using spaces
- to push the message 'is phoning you' of the screen on the right. Can anyone
- please tell me what the port is and what parameters in what order go? I lost
- the program over the summer when I was cleaning up.. you know how it goes.. oh
- this is old stuff: DEL *.*;*...
-
- Thanx in advance
