The (WC) mnemonic will work just fine.
If you want to write to the write control line to another terminal on the same machine (such as comet anywhere clients, or other terminals running comet on the same machine), you can do that this way:
(DECLARATIVES)
LENGTH 2 & LOCAL AX$
LENGTH 80 & LOCAL PMSG$
SENDMSG: FORMAT '@0E07@';PMSG$
(EXECUTABLES)
PMSG$='Hello World'
AX$='@FFFF@'
DOSRW(AX$,SENDTO$,80,SENDMSG),EXCP=(EXCEPTIONHANDLING)
I haven't tested this in Comet32, but we use this command daily. We have a program that runs in a background partition, and notifies all terminals in that comet session of things that the user needs to know (new email messages, etc). Its pretty useful.
