If these are single-byte characters (not Unicode) they should work alright.

Skills and spells are in the file skills.dat - edit that with a text editor and see how it works. Various SMAUG sites explain how the skills work.

You might be better of with Dawn Of Time, mentioned elsewhere on this forum. It is a bit more recently updated, and has lots of configuration options.

There are other posts on this forum about free mud servers.

I am no genius, however if you keep using MUDs and reading the source code and help files, you will gradually learn a lot about them. It isn't a five-minute job. :)

Hi.

If you deside to start up a dawn of time mud, i can help you a little with coding problems if Kalahn hasn't got time, though i am also working on my own mud, called The Realms of Darkness, which is running dawn of time, and i have modified it a little, but more comes each day. :)
