Chat (AX.25)

AX.25 can be used to encapsulate chat messages to other AX.25 users. Chat functions may also be built into telnet applications or bulletin board systems.

List of Software

Below is a list of software that can be used for this purpose:

• splitscreen - a UNIX implementation of the NOS ttylink command
• talk-ax25 - a modifed version of the conventional Berkeley `talk' program to support Linux AX.25 operation
• Craig Small's ttylink Daemon - a daemon to accept a ttylink TCP connection and convert it into a talk request
• Michael Westfall's ttylink Daemon - a split screen terminal that listens for incoming ttylink connection requests
• Ping-Pong Convers Server software - convers server that allows multiple users to simultaneously chat with each other
