Conversation within UNIX
My co-worker Mark and I both regularly use our mainframe UNIX system. I've fingered him, and know that he's logged on. While I don't need to have a conversation with him, I would like to ask him if he's available to meet for a break at 2:00. From within the UNIX system, how would I do this?

there is another utility "orville write" which is not part of standard unix , but can easily be downloaded and installed
http://unixpapa.com/write.html
which lets you send telegrams like
$tel <username> <message>
or
$tel <username> <enter>
<message> <enter>
and it also installs a command "huh"
which retrieves your last telegram that you received if you had set your "mesg to R"
