Implement a program that allows you to chat with people

Reference no: EM132091540

Phase : GUI (a C program, not C++)

You are asked to implement a program that allows you to chat with people over the network like the instant messaging. In this part, we are concerned about the screen control only.

We will use the curses library to achieve our goal. First of all, your program must ask for user name and password ("xyz") .

When the password is typed in, the echo must be turn off and a * is shown at the next position on the screen.

Thereafter, you should split the screen into two windows, the output window occupies the top part and the input window the bottom part.

You can assume the screen is 24 rows and 80 columns.

Your program should keep receiving input (line by line, allows the window to scroll ) from the input window and print each line, preceded by the user name, to the output window (again, allows the window to scroll).

Your program should terminate when the string "exit" is typed.
