   How about using CONF (a multi-user "write"-like program) to create
an enhanced talk mode? There is already a conference-mode for GnuEmacs
and by having two windows, one for incoming messages, one for outgoing
one would have a multi-user "talk" system.

   Would be intereseted to hear if anyone has thoughts about this...
