Subject: A basic chat program

Okay I'm looking to make a basic chat program that I can connect to via 
telnet for learning purposes.

I want a user to connect then login in or be able to create a new user, 
new users would be saved as files. then when they're in the program they 
can talk on different channels by typing "channel1 <message>" or 
"channel2 <message>" etc. Also I'd like to put the code in different 
files i.e. connection/login/user create code in one file, the 
channel/talk functions in another and in a third file a list of the 
commands that can be typed pointing to the function name (like 
{"<command", function_name} so that when they type the command that's 
listed there it will find the correct function and run it) I need help 
on how to go about this, psuedo code, code examples etc.
