| I was reading through this thread:
http://www.gammon.com.au/forum/?id=10043
It seemed like a lot of progress was made, but then the thread kind of... ended.
Was a protocol standard published, based on the discussion? | Top |

| It turned into GMCP (Generic MUD Communication Protocol) which was documented, and then the page lapsed. However a copy of the spec is here:
http://www.gammon.com.au/gmcp
There is an ATCP plugin that ships with MUSHclient (ATCP was an earlier variant of GMCP which works in a similar way).
There are various links on the page I mention above, which includes GMCP handlers. Aardwolf and the IRE MUDs use that at present to allow things like mappers to work smoothly. |
