Chat is a program that runs on your macintosh and allows you to run a chat
server on it. You and others will be able to telnet to your machine and
participate in online conversations. Chat includes multiple channels that
you can switch between at will.

There are numerous user commands and administrator commands available. Read
the documentation and the FAQ in the archive for more information on them.

For more info on chat, or to be added to the mailing list, send a message
to me at .

Current versions of chat as well as the source code are always available at:

ftp://pluto.cc.umr.edu/pub/chat

**** WHATS NEW IN 2.1pre12

Fixed problem with lines greater than 256 characters, now will
automatically act as if you hit return if you type more than around
245 characters.

Fixed problem with Chat crashing cause of too much text in the Monitor
windows (>32K).

Fixed problem with crlf/cr on non NCSA Telnet connections. (i.e. unix)

Buffering is working, but at the moment, it doesn't seem to work with NCSA
Telnet, it looks like NCSA Telnet is connecting to Chat in LineMode Telnet.
Unfortunately, this defeats the method I am using to check for buffering.
I have been unable to get it to work with NCSA Telnet.

The Admin \RESET command is still not functional.
