Short: V1.9 Simple interface to Amiga-LPMud Author: Lars Düning Uploader: Lars Düning Version: 1.9 Type: game/role Action: NoStart PlayMud - A quick'n'dirty interface to Amiga-LPmud Copyright © 1992-1996 by Lars Duening (Mateese @ Nightfall). All rights reserved. Permission granted for non-commercial use. This program is a replacement for the original 'telnet' delivered with van-Roode's AMud to play it. It can be used to play any mud port using a socket simulation compatible to van-Roode's one, like Amylaar's enhanced LPMud, DGD, MudOS or CircleMud. PlayMud interfaces the Mud to the player either by a vanilla interactive DOS handler (telnet used the console.device directly), or by running as door to the 'AmiExpress' BBS program. Since PlayMud should work with any stream handler, playing via the serial or AUX: handler should be possible (couldn't try it though). If a BBS provides similar handlers to subprograms (like CNet does), PlayMud can run under them as well. In such cases it might be necessary to specify explicitely that the 'Current' console is to be used. PlayMud assumes that the handler understands ANSI, or at least the ANSI sequences for normal and invisible display ([0m and [8m). PlayMud liberately does not switch the handler into raw mode to let the user profit from the advanced features of modern console handlers, like command histories or scroll buffers. Please note that PlayMud is just a simple interface between one IO handler and the running LPMud. If you need more advanced fancy like multi-line serial connections, you have to expand PlayMud on your own (or write your own IO handler). ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 632 275 56.4% 01-May-96 18:58:38 PlayMud-1.9.info 779 489 37.2% 01-May-96 18:48:36 +.product-info 14066 3853 72.6% 02-Jan-96 22:52:42 +AmiExpressFront.mod 785 324 58.7% 20-Jun-94 11:23:30 +AmiExpressFront.mod.info 2082 1064 48.8% 01-May-96 18:49:54 +CHANGELOG 393 210 46.5% 20-Jun-94 11:24:02 +CHANGELOG.info 14433 3886 73.0% 01-May-96 18:48:22 +DosHndlFront.mod 785 327 58.3% 20-Jun-94 11:23:22 +DosHndlFront.mod.info 224 127 43.3% 22-May-94 22:32:30 +FILES 393 209 46.8% 20-Jun-94 11:23:54 +FILES.info 4222 1216 71.1% 02-Jan-96 22:53:54 +FrontEnd.mod 785 328 58.2% 20-Jun-94 11:23:12 +FrontEnd.mod.info 3764 1466 61.0% 01-May-96 18:45:12 +Global.mod 785 329 58.0% 20-Jun-94 11:23:04 +Global.mod.info 632 274 56.6% 20-Jun-94 10:59:46 +icons.info 1058 454 57.0% 22-May-94 22:27:14 +PlayMud.BBSCmd.info 569 220 61.3% 20-Jun-94 10:35:26 +PlayMud.Door.info 526 171 67.4% 20-Jun-94 10:34:58 +PlayMud.info 272 155 43.0% 06-Sep-93 18:12:12 +mudmsgs.h 785 326 58.4% 20-Jun-94 11:22:30 +mudmsgs.h.info 26464 14238 46.1% 01-May-96 18:57:06 +PlayMud 673 378 43.8% 01-May-96 18:50:04 +PlayMud.article 756 418 44.7% 01-May-96 18:50:10 +PlayMud.artikel 53264 13508 74.6% 01-May-96 18:44:30 +PlayMud.c 785 327 58.3% 20-Jun-94 11:22:46 +PlayMud.c.info 7393 3480 52.9% 01-May-96 18:52:34 +PlayMud.doc 393 209 46.8% 20-Jun-94 11:23:38 +PlayMud.doc.info 526 176 66.5% 20-Jun-94 10:59:46 +PlayMud.info 24120 7004 70.9% 02-Jan-96 23:19:28 +PlayMud.mod 785 331 57.8% 20-Jun-94 11:23:46 +PlayMud.mod.info 1658 891 46.2% 01-May-96 18:50:32 +PlayMud.readme 393 212 46.0% 20-Jun-94 11:24:10 +PlayMud.readme.info 3210 1120 65.1% 02-Jan-96 22:54:10 +StringConv.mod 785 328 58.2% 20-Jun-94 11:22:56 +StringConv.mod.info 6147 2465 59.8% 06-Sep-93 18:11:58 +telnet.h 785 328 58.2% 20-Jun-94 11:22:38 +telnet.h.info -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 176107 61116 65.2% 10-Nov-97 03:55:08 36 files
