Mitchell,
	I have just what you are looking for. If you call the Turnkey XBBS
at 714-662-7450 and look in the unix subdirectory you will find both the
binary for SCO and the source for a program called xtalk. It does just
what you are describing, split screen and all. It is not totally bug free,
for instance it does not really handle scrolling within each region of the
screen properly, but it does work.
	If you or any others out there would rather uucp it, send me some
mail and I will make it available in the public directory for uucp.


					Best regards,
