/CHAT_TOGGLE = "hot-key-defintion" Allows the watcher and user to chat, where they can type back and forth to each other, but the keystrokes typed are not entered as input to whatever program the user process currently is running. Specify a hot-key sequence which, when pressed while being watched, will cause Peek/Spy to enter/exit a mode which is similar to "local mode" on a standard terminal. The default hot-key value for ALLOW/CHAT_TOGGLE is taken from the logical USER$CHAT_TOGGLE, usually defined system-wide by PEEK_DEFAULTS.COM. While in chat mode, what the user and watcher type to each other is echoed on both terminals, but will NOT be placed into the user's typeahead buffer, or passed on to the user's running program. This prevents this type of chatting activity from causing program or command errors for the user being watched. Example: $ PEEK/ALLOW JONES /CHAT="<F14>" The above command allows user JONES to watch you with PEEK and defines F14 as the hot-key for entering and exiting chat mode. Whenever the user being watched presses F14, both terminals will go into chat mode until F14 is pressed again. While in chat mode, the watcher and user being watched may type whatever they wish, and it will be displayed on both screens. If chat mode appears not to work and your terminal just beeps when you type, this is because you do not have keyboard input control (see the PEEK Commands ALLOW Subtopic: /TOGGLE_INPUT, which is still active during chat mode unless /SIMULTANEOUS_INPUT is in effect). The keys which are useful while in chat mode are the alphanumeric keys, carriage-return, delete and the arrow keys. You should press carriage-return to end a line, since if the other terminal is not in auto-wrap mode, the other user may not be able to see what you are typing after you reach the margin and only your terminal does an autowrap.
