I'm looking to start a MUD client application, which connects to a MUD hosted on a telnet server. The only thing important to me is that it runs painlessly and efficiently across any OS. Aside from that requirement, I'm not really sold on any language. So I'm looking for a freely available telnet client library on which I can base my ...
As a hobby project I am trying to create a ROM (Diku-Merc based) derivative. (Now defunct) I would appreciate it if anybody has done something similar and has some useful resources to share or tips to offer. I'm finding that a lot the resources such as mailing lists are no longer active and many links are dead. I've picked ROM because t...

What language should I use? Inte...

A big reason I picked session beans is JTA. I'm more experienced with web apps in which if you get an OptimisticLockException you just catch i...
Hello! I am working on a MUD client written in Clojure. Right now, I need two different threads. One which receives input from the user and sends it out to the MUD (via a simple Socket), and one that reads and displays output from the MUD, to the user. Should I just use Java Threads, or is there some Clojure-specific feature I should be...
