It includes information about where to get clients for the various MUDs. Please let me know if you have additions, changes, corrections, or suggestions. Please note that I have not used or tested all of these. Bugs should be reported to the authors (whose names should be in the documentation somewhere). Anton Changes since the last release: Updated TinyTalk version. Updated TinyFugue version. Added warning about EMACS. [ Version 1.7 of 2/5/91. ] What is a client? ----------------- A "client" is a program which can be used to connect to a running MUD. Most current MUD systems can be reached using the 'telnet' program (standard on BSD UNIX, and available on many System V and VMS machines). The clients listed here can be used as replacements for telnet; they typically provide extra functions such as macros or a screen mode.
