Synopsis: nwrite will write to users with mesg n

State-Changed-From-To: open-closed

State-Changed-Why: 
As one of the author's of this program, Aaron Smith <aaron@veritas.com>,
pointed out 'mesg n' only turns off group write privileges for the user's
terminal.  A user will still be able to write a message to himself.  This
behavior is different from FreeBSD's write(1).
