Not really, I would suggest buying a book about lex and yacc (delivered with any UNIX) and write the 5 pages lex/yacc code. Then let them produce the 50 pages C code to put into the MUD. Then you will even get recursion, nested loops, nested if then else & for's, parenthesis, logical expressions and arithmetic expression for free (without additional coding work). yacc - YetAnotherCompilerCompiler lex - generator of lexical analysis programs Program generators are fun - if you know how to use them.
