Hi Ryan,
Thank you very much! I will definitely check this out. It sounds like it
could very well be the animal I'm hunting for.

Hi,
MOO's have there own programming language called MOO. It's not very
difficult to learn. I've been coding in MOO for about 4 months, and
don't find it too hard. A good website with a mailing list, tutorials,
etc is at www.moo-cows.com. Now, MOO is the traditional way of
starting a MOO (with a Lambda/Gamma MOO Server, you'll learn more at
the website I provided), however this isn't the only way to do it. If
you were to become a really advanced coder and wanted to try building
your own server, you could. If you want a more simple, easier way, MOO
is what I'd pick.
Good Luck.
-Ryan

Hi Thomas,
I'm directing this at you, but the questionand its answer might be useful
to
others on the list, so I'm posting it here. My question is simply
this...I'm very interested in becoming a coder. Specifically, I have
notions
of building a blind friendly MUD from scratch. I have ideas for a unique
magic system,diverse skills from fishing to the crafting of magic rings,
several denominations of coin, numerous guilds and several other features
which I may see on individual muds, but never all of them in the same
game.
What programming language or environment would you recommend that I
investigate for this kind of project? I've never coded before, but as
Hannnibal Lecter says I have oodles of time and the bloody mindedness you
need to complete projects of this scope. I'll be eager to hear any
suggestions, warnings and words of wisdom you might have for me. I am
eager
to make a significant contribution to the blind gamer community, and to
anyone who wants real depth of play in a sophisticated text MMPORPG.
Thanks,
--Bill
