Talk Leet is a PHP class can be used to convert words to "leet" speak and vice-versa. It can take a string with English words and convert the letters to the corresponding in "leet" speak. The class can also do the opposite, namely take a string with words in "leet" speak and convert them to the original in English.
Hi! I would like to start creating a bridge for good old Unix talk program. This bridge would allow you to joinIRC-channel by using talk just for example. I have a couple of questions:
1. Are there any previous attempts or implementations creating Talk bridge?
2. Which version of the talk... (9 Replies)
I have the manpage for this utility on my system, but the utility itself is not there.
My friend has the utility, but it does not work, not even on the same machine.
Does anyone remember it? What software package is it related to? Where is it configured? (1 Reply)

TALK(1) General Commands Manual TALK(1)NAME
talk - talk to another user
SYNOPSIS
talk person [ ttyname ]
DESCRIPTION
Talk is a visual communication program which copies lines from your terminal to that of another user.
If you wish to talk to someone on you own machine, then person is just the person's login name. If you wish to talk to a user on another
host, then person is of the form :
host!user or
host.user or
host:user or
user@host
though host@user is perhaps preferred.
If you want to talk to a user who is logged in more than once, the ttyname argument may be used to indicate the appropriate terminal name.
When first called, it sends the message
Message from TalkDaemon@his_machine...
talk: connection requested by your_name@your_machine.
talk: respond with: talk your_name@your_machine
to the user you wish to talk to. At this point, the recipient of the message should reply by typing
talk your_name@your_machine
It doesn't matter from which machine the recipient replies, as long as his login-name is the same. Once communication is established, the
two parties may type simultaneously, with their output appearing in separate windows. Typing control L will cause the screen to be
reprinted, while your erase, kill, and word kill characters will work in talk as normal. To exit, just type your interrupt character; talk
then moves the cursor to the bottom of the screen and restores the terminal.
Permission to talk may be denied or granted by use of the mesg command. At the outset talking is allowed. Certain commands, in particular
nroff and pr(1) disallow messages in order to prevent messy output.
FILES
/etc/hosts to find the recipient's machine
/var/run/utmp to find the recipient's tty
