        !            12: Normally, a  user can communicate  with other users  by using the
        !            13: commands msg and write.
        !            14: 
        !            15: In  certain situations,  it is useful  to suppress  messages from
        !            16: other users.  For example,  if you are redirecting a shell script
        !            17: to a file and someone sends you a message, that message will land
        !            18: in  your file.   Therefore, COHERENT  supplies the  command mesg,
        !            19: which,  lets you  permit or suppress  messages from  other users.
        !            20: The argument y allows messages, whereas argument n disallows mes-
        !            21: sages.  With no argument,  mesg tells you whether you can receive
        !            22: messages (as yes or no) without changing the message state.
