- Check terminal's openness to write messages:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`mesg`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Disallow receiving messages from other users:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`mesg n`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Allow receiving messages from other users:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`mesg y`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Enable [v]erbose mode, printing a warning if the command is not executed from a terminal:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`mesg --verbose`
