YTalk – multi-user chat program

YTalk is in essence a multi-user chat program.

It works almost exactly like the UNIX talk program and even communicates with the same talk daemon(s), but YTalk allows for multiple connections. It supports both talk protocols (“talk” and “ntalk”) and can communicate with several different talk daemons at the same time.

This is free and open source software.
