; This program is similar in nature as the 'message service' for a
; SYSOP  on a BBS. The  main  point is, that it can be used in the
; command line in CP/M.  I was tired of having to re-enter the BBS
; just to  leave a  message  because the  SYSOP didn't  answer  on
; CHAT.

; Some of these  routines were  borrowed from CHAT.  The origional
; author of CHAT was: Roderick Hart...

; The caller simply enters the program  name or uses the option to
; immediately  start without instructions.  Using a ' D' after the
; name will directly enter it.

; It should also be noted that this program has  NO provisions for
; anything less than CP/M 2.x...

; 'MEMLIM' = This allows that number (MEMLIM) of bytes to be added
; starting at BUFF.  BUFF is the area directly following this pro-
; gram where all received characters are stored, INCLUDING already
; existing messages (if any). i.e. If the value of MEMLIM were 50,
; then this program would only allow 50 bytes to be placed in mem-
; ory. It would then issue an error telling the user it is running
; low on memory and  automatically  'close up shop'.  It should be
; noted that,  even if it does enter the error condition, it still
; includes the LASTCALR information. So this number should be used
; as a reference only.
