Textplay: a MUD Client

Textplay is a simple Perl MUD client using GTK+ as toolkit.

It is designed to be able to perform only the necessary tasks required by a MUD client, but to do them well and fast; the rest is up to the user through scripting. The program has been developed and run on a GNU/Linux platform, but should in theory be runnable on other platforms as well, as long as they meet the requirements.

Textplay is free software.

Here are the basic features of Textplay:

• Perl scripting
• Tab completion
• ANSI colors
• TELNET
• Features you would expect from any client is not missing in Textplay either:

  • History
  • Scrollback
  • Speedwalk
• Online help

• Glib, Gtk2
