Description: PozChat is a talker for use with a compatible Acorn sockets interface. A talker if you dont know already, is a program which runs on a computer connecetd to the Internet. People can then telnet to it and talk to each other, either one to one, or in groups. PozChat provides a lot of the features which I like in talkers, and is easy for a beginner to start on. I want a talker which I can talk on straight away, without having to wade through pages of introduction and tons of stuff on location, story, etc. PozChat has been available in many versions on the freenet site since April. This version of PozChat is the result of a lot of work on it over the summer. There are extensive changes, especially with respect to accounts. Careful reading of the documentation is advised. Please report any bugs you may find, and let me know any suggestions you have.
