1. Srvsckip.ew for clients?
Had this neat idea of writing an mud/telnet client in
euphoria.
Thinking srvsckip.ew should provide all the tools needed.
but I just get very confused about the sequence of calls
needed and about the proper way to set up the onEvent,
I think would be needed to read the in coming messages.
Is there something wrong with my thinking?
Can any one give me a clue?
Any ideas?

Actually, there will be a client written here in the near future,
by someone whom I'm not real sure about their desire for
anonymity at this point...
It will have special features that will meld with EUServer,
and the combo of the two will provide a *blistering* fast
communication session, as well as laying groundwork for collab,
whiteboarding, ftp'ing, gaming, and a whole slew of other
intentions/applications...
I believe it will also be able to function as a standalone
telnet client, for visiting other locales with it... but,
if it doesn't contain that capability, it should be easily
modifyable to function that way...
As far as using srvsckip.ew goes, it would provide a mighty
fine base to build from... there is a newer version of that
file that is going to be released here shortly, with the
next release of EUServer... it's speed is nearly doubled,
if not indeed, doubled, and several 'oopsies' were found
and squished (a potential invalid memory access here,
and a typo there...:) )
That new srvsckip.ew file will be found in versions of
EUServ that are -after- 1.55. The 1.50 EUServ release
will not contain the srvsckip.ew file that you would want...
I hope to have 1.55 or greater, ready here shortly, and I will
be making a webpage for EUServer so the upgrades I (and my
silent partner) code can be instantly available for DL'ing....
