It's actually not difficult at all. There are several approaches to this you can take, though. First, you can have the main Circle process open a socket and write out the who list to 4001. On the other hand, you can just have the main Circle process periodically write out a file that contains the who data in proper format and have something like 'sign' (included with Circle in the utils directory, I think) write it out...:) daniel koepke / dkoepke@california.com +------------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://democracy.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list-faq.html | +------------------------------------------------------------+
