Most existing mud codebases have been created using C. So C++ isn't going to help you much if you want to distribute snippets, because some codebases require conversion to be compiled with a C++ compiler. The newer codebases that I see people working on are almost universally written in C++, Java, or a language with greater abstraction possibilities than C.
If you just wish to modify an existing codebase, for example ROM, a book on C would most likely be your best bet.
btw, "C+" doesn't exist =).
