Me, how do I edit files? I use midnight commander. If I had anyone working an a mud with me I would probably put a copy of the running mud on a different server in a directory that they could ssh to. I believe you can use midnight commnder with ssh but thats probably what I would recommend for anyone edting files and stuff. ctrl+o gives you a command prompt to grep -n "string" *.c if you need to find strings. forunetly with midnight commander you can paste into it and you can highlight and move stuff around in the file but you cant copy out of it so. I run into some problems on that aspect of programming. if you use youe shells F1 threw F6 you can use the ctrl+insert to copy i believe and shift+delete deetes anything highlighted. also if anyone knows anything about hex midnight commander comes with F+3 file viewer that you can select to view the hexidecimal aspect of some files and even edit the hex values
whic some people find useful. I still can't even cheat on rom save files.

relik.ath.cx port:2001
I could use some help if anyone likes
what they see and wants to be a part
of a circlemud base mud.

necromium.com port:4000
I play here frequently, Its
one of the coolest circlemud
base games Ive seen.
