This is a simple console-based LAN chat program that must be accessed in a common network folder ( please make sure this folder is empty ) by all the users. It is a basic program and can be used for simple chats between LAN connected computer systems but has features to enable you to share links and files too.

You can check out installation instructions in the 'Files' tab.

Check the 'Changelogs' for changes made, 'Hacks' for hacks in the program, and 'FAQ' for any questions. They are all under the 'Wiki' tab.

Currently, the program only runs on Windows systems. It has not been tested on Linux systems that run windows executables using Wine or any other such emulator.
