Hi,

I'm brand-new to computerCraft, although I'm pretty familiar with other languages (java, javascript, HTML, Python)

I'm a little stumped on how to make a turtle chat with the public chat area.

In turtle edu, you can put in turtleedu.say("blah blah blah") and it works great.

but, not so much in normal turtles.

My question is:
Is there a simple way to write to public game chat?
Can you not do it on a turtle, but can do it on a stationary computer?
Or am I really wrong?

Thanks,
The hermanoid

You can use another peripheral mod that adds a "chat box" type peripheral, but that feature is only available on the CCedu turtles with just ComputerCraft installed.
