&gt;A fellow was talking with me about coding up an inter-mud
&gt;tell/gossip/mail type of thing...  I know it's been done
&gt;before, and finally found where (www.imaginary.com).

There's also the rpage protocol that was used by Tiny* stuff
(but has been largely abandoned in favor of multi-mudding);
talk to Lydia Leong about getting the code (lwl#digex,net).
Also, there's the MUDnet bots; for info on those, contact
Zenty (zenty#usa,net), sTiLe (stile#mindless,com), Bobby
(bobby#socalled,com), or hellspawn (tdragond#heads,mit.edu),
or mail omni#mux,net.

&gt;But, before I go and hack another shack onto the ghetto
&gt;that is my code, I'd like to hear opinions on either the
&gt;existing protocols, or the idea in general...

InterMUD-3 (the stuff at imaginary.com) does not support
multi-target messages effectively, and this is one of the
most-requested extensions.

rpage is effectively dead.

MudNet is actively used, but I know next to nothing about it.


On the feature as a whole, the idea is cute, but I prefer to
just log in to multiple MUDs at once.
