write:

‘Write’ allow you to communicate with other users, by copying lines from your
terminal to theirs. When you run the write command, the user you are writing to
gets a message of the form:
Message from yourname@yourhost on yourtty at hh:mm...
Any further lines you enter will be copied to the specified user’s terminal. If
the other user wants to reply, they must run write as well. When you are done,
type an end-of-file or interrupt character. The other user will see the message
EOF indicating that the conversation is over.

$write user [ttyname]
Eg:
$write mca pts/1
