So just decided to rewrite my MUD 
from scratch and write it in Ruby 
with ncurses this time for fun. It will be open-source 
@Surasanji its not going to work with standard mud clients because those rely on telnet and ill use ssh + ncurses. But with ncurses my hope is a MUD client wont be needed.
@freemo Interesting! I'll want to take a look and see what's up when you get it to a testing phase. Happy to help break it! ;p
@Surasanji I will share here as I progress for sure.
@freemo Awesome. I've been in the hobby such a long time, and new tech is absolutely required if the hobby is going to survive
@Surasanji Yea i wanted to do something a bit new while still keeping the pure-text feel. Ncurses + ssh seemed like a good approach
@freemo Are there advantages to writing that sort of thing in Ruby? Will it still interface with your common Mud/Mush clients? I mean, I can't imagine it wouldn't, but you never know.
