So, you stick on sending E-mail. That's what you want, real typing!

Hi Steve and whoever else is under the impression I was asking about voice
chat. I'm not. What I called a "chat program" I'm beginning to suspect I
should have referred to as an IM program? Did I create confusion by not
knowing that? In any case, I'm not wishing for a program for talking to
people. Only real time typing. I believe most of the people who responded
understood that, even though I seem to have used the wrong terminology. I
think that's what happened, anyway.
Thanks a lot.
