Yes you can chat with Command prompt But for using that facility you need to follow the following steps :

Firstly you need to open Notepad and write the following code in it :

@echo off
:A
Cls
echo MESSENGER
set /p n=User:
set /p m=Message:
net send %n% %m%
Pause
Goto A

Now save this as "Messenger.bat". Open the .bat file and in Command Prompt you should see:

MESSENGER
User:

After "User" type the IP address of the computer you want to contact.
After this, you should see this:

Message:

Now type in the message you wish to send.
Before you press "Enter" it should look like this:

MESSENGER
User: 168.100.75.81
Message: Hi

Now all you need to do is press "Enter", and start chatting!

To find out the IP address of your computer you need to open command prompt & write "ipconfig" & press Enter. It will show you your IP address of your computer Now enjoy Chating......!

But you require to do this on both the computer...! Hope this works for you!
