egilh project #2: Unix System V Chat


When: late 80s


What: IRC like multi user chat. The “GUI” was pretty similar as well. A lot more secure though as you could only send messages.


Lessons learned:



  • Curses :-)
  • X Windows moves the input focus with the mouse so don't put the coffee cup too close to the mouse
  • Scket handling under *nix
