<H1>mbchat - The Sysop to User chat program.</H1>
<P>
<H3>Synopsys.</H3>
<P>
<code><strong>mbchat</strong> &lt;device&gt;</code>
<P>&nbsp;<P>
<H3>Description.</H3>
<P>
The program <strong>mbchat</strong> is used for Sysop to User chat. It
must be started by the sysop if the user has paged the sysop. The sysop
must be logged in as user <strong>mbse</strong> in order to have write
permissions to the same tty as the user has. For example, if the user is
at ttyS0 (COM1), the command to chat would be <strong>mbchat ttyS0</strong>.
<P>&nbsp;<P>
<H3>Environment.</H3>
<P>
In order to run <strong>mbchat</strong> you must set the global variable
<strong>$MBSE_ROOT</strong>. This variable must point to the root directory
of the bbs structure. The main configuration file <strong>config.data</strong>
must be present in the ~/etc directory.
<P>&nbsp;<P>
<H3>Bugs.</H3>
<P>
When you try to chat with a user who is up or downloading a file, the
transfer will fail or may even block. You need to check what the user is
doing before using this program.
<P>
This program will not be developed anymore and will be replaced by a program
that will chat via <strong>mbsed</strong>. This is safer and can be used even
from a remote site over the net.
