Description
Microsoft Chat is a simple chat program that allows two users to have
a text-based conversation using two computers connected over a
network (see Figure 4-49). It’s
similar to the Unix talk

where the screen is split in two panes and each user types and
watches as the other types. Both screens are updated in real time, so
you can see letters as they are typed by your partner.

To initiate a chat session, click the Dial button on the toolbar or
select Dial from the Conversation menu, select the target computer
from the list (other computers in your workgroup will be shown here),
and click OK. Then the user of the computer that has been dialed will
see a Chat button in their Taskbar; that user must click the button
to “answer” the call.
