Oops!  I forgot to include chat.h in the distribution.  Here it is

------------------------ rip here ----------------------------

chat.h

This is the header file for chat programs

If NO_SH_ESC is defined, shell escapes are disabled.

If NO_CHG_NAME is defined, users cannot change their display name from
the default which is the login name.

If NO_SHOW_USERS is defined, The /s command to show other users on the
system is disabled.

Some curses libraries in SV3.2 (and perhaps others) have a bug in that
halfdelay does not work as advertised.  To get around this define the
constant HALFDELAY_BROKEN.  This will cause code to be substituted which
uses a 2 second alarm to check the queue for incoming messages.  If you
don't know if this is necessary on your system then compile without it
and see if you can receive messages from others without hitting a key.
If not then recompile with the constant defined.
