I'm running my mud using GnuWin32 under Windows 98, running it all in that Handy little BASH shell. Windows' ability to find files and strings within files is GREAT for bug hunting, WordPad is just fine as a text editor, and I can even write some visual C++ monitoring programs, so I can keep track of how many people are online, important notices, etc right on my task bar, without having to go into the MUD's window.. I'm curious as to WHY everyone bashes Win98 as a MUD OS, when it seems to do the job fine, and makes it a LOT easier on me to administrate.. (and yes, I've used Linux, I use *ix systems every day at work) Deus Irae +------------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://democracy.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list-faq.html | +------------------------------------------------------------+
