Can Turing be programmed into opening a network message console, allowing other computers to connect to if they typed in the console name and have instant messages sent back and forth? |

now sure what you mean by "network message console" Turing comes with a Net. module, which allows for network communication. It is possible to build multi-user "chatrooms" in Turing (and that has been done). |

What I meant was like MSN Messenger, sending IM back and forth between people and so forth. |

If you want to send a message to someone's MSN account from Turing, that might be tricky -- you'd need to figure out how to connect and use their protocol. If you want to send a message to someone running the Turing program that you wrote, then that is quite possible. In fact, Turing should come with an example of a chat program -- either in the example files or in the Help documents, under Net |
