OSR5 FAQ
How can I send WinPopup messages to Windows machines?
John Hemo provided this:
VisionFS: use 'visionfs message' (this will show you the command arguments and syntax)
Samba: use 'smbclient -M {NetBIOS name}' to send messages.
At one time, I had written a shell script to assist me with the VisionFS command, it acted a bit like an email client, prompted me for NetBIOS or user to send to, and then let me type/edit a message before sending.
Of course, if the recipient isn't running WinPopup, this info won't help.
