I need all the help i can get with a program that does the
following :
It echoes the characters or lines that a user is typing
in a terminal to another terminal via the mail or write command.
Let's say I run that program within csh and i type in my terminal the
command "finger", I want both the command and the output to be sent
to another terminal connected to the system, as well as appear in my
terminal too.
I currently work on SunOS 4 on a SUN 4.
Any hint would be appreciated...
Andreas

Is this program a shell script or a program written in C, or something else? It would be fairly easy with sockets if you are familiar with programming them. Otherwise you could execute a command that does i/o redirection on the terminal you are going to. like: % finger > /dev/ttyXX where XX is the terminal you are sending to. If you would like to see an example using BSD sockets I will send it to you. -Ken Henry -- | Ken Henry | Disclaimer: "you are getting my opinion for free, so | Weeg Comp Center | INTERNET: khenry@umaxc.weeg.uiowa.edu | I always say | University of Iowa | BITNET: bptkenpb@uiamvs.bitnet | that you get | Iowa City, IA 52242| Phone: 319-335-5531 or 319-335-5484| what you pay"
