I'd like to be able to do the remote equivalent of the local command: >echo hello | write burow Mesage from burow@helios.physics on ttyp1 at 9:43 ... hello EOF > One can't simply rsh this since write, for its header, tries to find the terminal executing the command, and of course there is none on the remote machine. I don't want to use mail, since in my application I'll be sending this command to every machine that the recipient is logged on. talk, doesn't work since the std i/o has to be a terminal. e-mail comments, solutions, etc. please and I'll post what works. thank you burk
