really, all i want is something simple for me and my partner to pass quick notes to each other occasionally (probably not even a few times per month)...mostly notes that aren't worth even the bother of spending 30 seconds sending a quick email.
While not seeing anything in the wall manpage indicating that the message reaches other hosts on the network, there's also the traditional: talk - Chat with another user talkd - Remote user communication server or utalk - talk-like program with additional features xtalk - BSD talk compatible X Window System client ytalk - enhanced talk program and a "write" variant: nwrite - Enhanced replacement for the write command Can't say which would suit best.
