-class="COMMAND">wall</tt></a></h2>
-
-<p><tt class="COMMAND">wall</tt>(1) is a quick way to write a message to the users on a
-system. The basic syntax is:</p>
-
-<table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%">
-<tr>
-<td>
-<pre class="SCREEN">
-<samp class="PROMPT">%</samp> <kbd class="USERINPUT">wall [file]</kbd>
-</pre>
-</td>
-</tr>
-</table>
-
-<p>This will result in the contents of [file] being displayed on the terminals of all
-currently logged in users. If you don't specify a file, wall will read from standard
-input, so you can just type your message, and end with <b class="KEYCAP">Ctrl</b>+<b
-class="KEYCAP">d</b>.</p>
-
-<p><tt class="COMMAND">wall</tt> doesn't have many features, and apart from letting your
-users know that you're about to do some serious maintenance to the system, or even reboot
-it, so they have time to save their work and log off :)</p>

-<div class="SECT2">
-<h2 class="SECT2"><a id="AEN5006" name="AEN5006">13.10.2 <tt
-class="COMMAND">talk</tt></a></h2>
-
-<p><tt class="COMMAND">talk</tt>(1) allows two users to chat. It splits the screen in
-half, horizontally. To request a chat with another user, use this command:</p>
-
-<table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%">
-<tr>
-<td>
-<pre class="SCREEN">
-<samp class="PROMPT">%</samp> <kbd class="USERINPUT">talk &lt;person&gt; [ttyname]</kbd>
-</pre>
-</td>
-</tr>
-</table>
-
-<div class="FIGURE"><a id="FIG-BASIC-NETWORK-COMMANDS-TALK-TALK"

-<p><b>Figure 13-7. Two users in a <tt class="COMMAND">talk</tt> session</b></p>
-
-<p><img src="basic-network-commands/talk.png" /></p>
-</div>
-
-<p>If you specify just a username, the chat request is assumed to be local, so only local
-users are queried. The ttyname is required if you want to ring a user on a specific
-terminal (if the user is logged in more than once). The required information for <tt
-class="COMMAND">talk</tt> can be obtained from the <tt class="COMMAND">w</tt>(1)
-command.</p>
-
-<p><tt class="COMMAND">talk</tt> can also ring users on remote hosts. For the username
-you simply specify an email address. <tt class="COMMAND">talk</tt> will try to contact
-that remote user on that host.</p>
-
-<p><tt class="COMMAND">talk</tt> is somewhat limited. It only supports two users and is
-half-duplex.</p>

-<div class="SECT2">
-<h2 class="SECT2"><a id="AEN5033" name="AEN5033">13.10.3 <tt
-class="COMMAND">ytalk</tt></a></h2>
-
-<p><tt class="COMMAND">ytalk</tt>(1) is a backwards compatible replacement for <tt
-class="COMMAND">talk</tt>. It comes with Slackware as the <tt class="COMMAND">ytalk</tt>
-command. The syntax is similar, but has a few differences:</p>
-
-<table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%">
-<tr>
-<td>
-<pre class="SCREEN">
-<samp class="PROMPT">%</samp> <kbd
-class="USERINPUT">ytalk &lt;username&gt;[#ttyname]</kbd>
-</pre>
-</td>
-</tr>

-<p><b>Figure 13-8. Two users in a <tt class="COMMAND">ytalk</tt> session</b></p>
-
-<p><img src="basic-network-commands/ytalk.png" /></p>
-</div>
-
-<p>The username and terminal are specified the same as under talk, except you must put
-them together with the hash mark (#).</p>
-
-<p>ytalk offers several advantages:</p>
-
-<ul>
-<li>
-<p>It supports more than two users.</p>
-</li>
-
-<li>
-<p>A menu of options that can be brought up anytime with <kbd
-class="USERINPUT">Esc</kbd>.</p>
-</li>
-
-<li>
-<p>You can shell out while still in the talk session.</p>
-</li>
-
-<li>
-<p>Plus more...</p>
-</li>
-</ul>
-
-<p>If you're a server administrator, you'll want to make sure that the <tt
-class="COMMAND">ntalk</tt> port is enabled in <tt class="FILENAME">/etc/inetd.conf</tt>.
-<tt class="COMMAND">ytalk</tt> needs that to work properly.</p>
