2/12/2023 0 Comments Telnet for mac![]() In short, the requirements for a MUD/MUSH/MUCK client to be useful are vastly different than those for a terminal client to be useful for playing BBS door games! I'm the author of the aforementioned Atlantis I can honestly say I've never even considered using it for door games. Door games not only send old-style IBM Extended ASCII (line-drawing characters and suchnot) where most Mac terminal applications are Unicode, but also in many cases will send ANSI cursor movement sequences (which many MUD/MUSH clients neither support, nor need to). MUD/MUSH type games send things like ANSI color, MCP extended sequences (which allow passing out-of-band data to plugins), MXP sequences (basically, HTML over telnet), etc. Tintin++, TinyFugue, Savitar, Mudwalker and Atlantis are all designed specifically for MUD/MUSH/MUCK/MOO/etc.
