Mudsy: A MUD client
This is a simple MUD client. It is built out of several reuseable
components. The MUD communication module contains a parser for the
the proposed MCP 2.1 standard and the MUD interaction panel is a JavaBean. The MUD communication
module produces an internal representation for each MCP message.
Users of the bean can register a listener for the messages, which are
delivered using the delegation event model used by AWT.
The client also includes a tool that builds MCP message listeners.
The tool creates an object that dispatches to a specified method based
on the name in the internal representation of an MCP message. It also
converts the arguments in the message to application specific types.
You can download the client as a JAR file.
The JAR file contains all the sources needed to compile the client.
You can start the client by pushing the following button in a Java 1.1
aware browser such as HotJava. You can also run this client as an
applet by giving this URL to the appletviewer application.
The client can be run as an application.
This application requires the use of a Java 1.1 VM.
Mudsy's name came from MUD Client (MUDC).
