I would ask if on Cygwin I can use the 'write' command:

write - send a message to another user

$ write USER [ttyname]

I remember I have used it some years ago, but not remember if it was on 
GNU/Linux or Cygwin.

I did a research on http://cygwin.com/packages and didn't find it, but 
perhaps I did the wrong search..


TIA,
Angelo.
