Hello! It has 2 functions:


success = tell(string Player, string Message)
success2 = say(string Message)

These returning true if the message was successfully sent. Its pretty easy :)/>

Always consult the topic of the peripheral in question.

http://www.computercraft.info/forums2/index.php?/topic/4587-cc153mc152-miscperipherals-33/

also there is always


for k,v in pairs( peripheral.getMethods("left") ) do
  print( k, ' : ', v)
end

where you replace "left" with the side of the peripheral.
