Comments on: Using telnet negotiation to control MUD / Client Interaction. http://www.aardwolf.com/blog/2008/07/10/telnet-negotiation-control-mud-client-interaction/ Aardwolf MUD General News and Updates.

I would like to have a chat with you about this topic. You see, I'm building a whole new mud client for two years now and I was learning IAC telnet options when I discovered this blog. You decided to use option 102 but why 102? MSSP uses 70 MCCP uses 85 (COMPRESS) and 86 (COMPRESS2) How can you make sure that other protocols won't use 102 later? How to make it a standard so that everybody knows 102 is MUP / MCP (mud update protocol / mud client protocol). Btw mud client protocol is already done but I don't like its standards, it doesn't use IAC sequence (http://mcp.cubik.org/). I am also a mud developer and looking for some good solution to create about the same thing you are talking here in your blog but I don't know what option number to use - should I use 102 too?

Anyways I meant the option displayed in the origional post for ZMUD will work for CMUD as well, but the #SENDSB command might work better for you. Hmm I wish I could edit my own comments.

I copied this from CMUD help files: Telnet Fires when specified Telnet Option subchannel text is received. When IAC SB OptionNumber Text IAC SE is received from the server, a Telnet trigger that matches the OptionNumber will fire and will compare the Text sent from the MUD with the pattern of the trigger state. (Added in v2.0) BTW, in cMUD you can trigger off the telnet IAC,SB messages.
