Maybe I'm really missing something, but if I'm correct, 'write' does NOT
allow you to write to a specific person/tty on a remote machine.  So,
what I'm looking for is such an animal.

What I am searching for is sources to a program that will allow me to
write a message on a remote host and a specific tty.

Is there such a beast out there or are the logistics of such a problem
too much?

Thank you.
