NakedMud is a project I started up to keep myself entertained, and fool around

with a couple ideas I could not work with on the MUD I run. The basic idea

behind NakedMud is to provide users with a solid engine for running a MUD, but

without the content that goes along with it.

I really know little about socket handling, and every time I've looked at the

topic, I cringe in horror. That is the reason NakedMud was built on top of

SocketMud(tm); SocketMud(tm) was essentially a glorified chat client when I got

it, which suited my purposes perfectly, since it had all of the socket work

done, leaving all of the fun stuff for me to fool around with. Many thanks go

out to Brian Graversen for writing and releasing SocketMud(tm) to the public.

The origional SocketMud(tm) README has been appended below.

For instructions on getting the MUD up and running, see startup.txt

SocketMud version 1.9

Little mud project, which has a command interpreter and supports

ANSI colors... has a nifty little help file system, and a few

commands (say, quit, who, etc). Also supports MCCP version 1 and 2.

I have used a few snippets of Erwin Andreasen's, so if you use this

codebase for something, remember to keep the credits to him, he

deserves it.

Simply type 'make' in the ../src/ directory, and start the mud

by typing './SocketMud &'. You can now connect by telnetting

to port 9009 on localhost (or whatever machine it runs on).

All parts of the SocketMud code written by me, that is contained

in this distribution, is considered public domain, and may be used

as you see fit - but do remember to give credit for Erwin's codebits,

even though they are considered PD as well.
