Don't forget programs on the Amiga are teenie weenie, port it to something else and it'll mushroom. I made a paint program in C and it compiled to 5k of code.

Strange you guys talk about this sort of stuff. Personally, I don't care coz I think my server will take up less space than an LP therefore it's small. :) [Rest of the stuff about languages and stuff] Whoosh! Straight over my head! I may as well drop in my extremely vague aims: Majority of mud specific stuff coded into the server itself, eg: combat, standard object, room, people, elastic bands. Attachment of code to any object. Disk based. *Portable* I don't have a site to run it on or anything like that, I'm running off on a shoestring budget and I expect to move around between various boxes (linux kind, not cardboard). | Ling "Mental slavery, _O_O_ Freshwater fish since 1976 set my spirit free" </PRE> <!--X-Body-of-Message-End--> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <HR> <ul compact><li><strong>Follow-Ups</strong>: <ul> <li><strong><A NAME="00432" HREF="msg00432.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Introduction</A></strong> <ul compact><li><em>From:</em> clawrenc#cup,hp.com</li></ul> <li><strong><A NAME="00403" HREF="msg00403.html">[MUD-Dev] Introduction</A></strong> <ul compact><li><em>From:</em> "Ross Nicoll" <rnicoll#lostics,thenet.co.uk></li></ul> <li><strong><A NAME="00387" HREF="msg00387.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Introduction</A></strong> <ul compact><li><em>From:</em> Dan Root <dar#thekeep,org></li></ul> </UL></LI></UL> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <UL><LI><STRONG>References</STRONG>: <UL> <LI><STRONG><A NAME="00380" HREF="msg00380.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Introduction</A></STRONG> <UL><LI><EM>From:</EM> Dan Root <dar#thekeep,org></LI></UL></LI> </UL></LI></UL> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00385.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: Administrative notes</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00387.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Introduction</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Prev by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00380.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Introduction</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00387.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Introduction</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Index(es): <UL> <LI><A HREF="index.html#00386"><STRONG>Date</STRONG></A></LI> <LI><A HREF="thread.html#00386"><STRONG>Thread</STRONG></A></LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> <!--X-BotPNI-End--> <!--X-User-Footer--> <!--X-User-Footer-End--> <ul><li>Thread context: <BLOCKQUOTE><UL> <LI><STRONG>Re: [MUD-Dev] RP thesis...</STRONG>, <EM>(continued)</EM> <ul compact> <ul compact> <LI><strong><A NAME="00447" HREF="msg00447.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] RP thesis...</A></strong>, clawrenc <a href="mailto:clawrenc#cup,hp.com">clawrenc#cup,hp.com</a>, Wed 14 May 1997, 08:01 GMT </LI> </ul> </ul> </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00377" HREF="msg00377.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Role-playing [was Re: several messages]</A></strong>, Chris Gray <a href="mailto:cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA">cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA</a>, Mon 12 May 1997, 02:43 GMT <LI><strong><A NAME="00376" HREF="msg00376.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Introduction</A></strong>, Chris Gray <a href="mailto:cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA">cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA</a>, Mon 12 May 1997, 02:43 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00380" HREF="msg00380.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Introduction</A></strong>, Dan Root <a href="mailto:dar#thekeep,org">dar#thekeep,org</a>, Mon 12 May 1997, 03:41 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00386" HREF="msg00386.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Introduction</A></strong>, Ling <a href="mailto:K.L.Lo-94#student,lut.ac.uk">K.L.Lo-94#student,lut.ac.uk</a>, Mon 12 May 1997, 08:49 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00387" HREF="msg00387.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Introduction</A></strong>, Dan Root <a href="mailto:dar#thekeep,org">dar#thekeep,org</a>, Mon 12 May 1997, 09:52 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00392" HREF="msg00392.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Introduction</A></strong>, Ling <a href="mailto:K.L.Lo-94#student,lut.ac.uk">K.L.Lo-94#student,lut.ac.uk</a>, Mon 12 May 1997, 13:33 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00440" HREF="msg00440.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Introduction</A></strong>, clawrenc <a href="mailto:clawrenc#cup,hp.com">clawrenc#cup,hp.com</a>, Wed 14 May 1997, 04:01 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00436" HREF="msg00436.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Introduction</A></strong>, clawrenc <a href="mailto:clawrenc#cup,hp.com">clawrenc#cup,hp.com</a>, Wed 14 May 1997, 01:11 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> </LI> </UL></BLOCKQUOTE> </ul> <hr> <center> [ <a href="../">Other Periods</a> | <a href="../../">Other mailing lists</a> | <a href="/search.php3">Search</a> ] </center> <hr> </body> </html>
