No, I hadn't heard of it. It looks pretty nice. Incidentally, when I started
thinking of this protocol a year a go or so, i called it MCP. :) Here's my
analysis of how it applies to my situation:
1. it seems to require that messages start at the begining of a line (i assume
this means after a newline or something similar). As I am currently layering
my stuff on top of a [running] lpmud, the prompt unfortunately seems to get in
the way. I like their model of quoting, though - I think I might adopt that
part of the standard, except that stuff can begin anywhere in the line (and
extends to end of line).
2. I also like the way that it handles sending multiline arguments in a message.
3. The chord stuff is way cool too. I'm going to have to reread that part
further.
4. I think that I have a few more layers in my protocol than MCP. Most obvious
is the query/response message pair which can keep track of "unanswered"
messages.
All in all, It is an awesome read, though. Thank you very much for
pointing me
at those web pages.
