Here is what I use for an autorun script. I used a combination of a
script that was posted previously on the list and the one that comes
with stock circle.
Any chance of getting this added to the distribution, George/Jeremy?

rem This script can be used to run CircleMUD over and over again (i.e.,
have it
rem automatically reboot if it crashes). It will run the game, and copy
some
rem of the more useful information from the system logs to the 'log'
directory
rem for safe keeping.
rem
rem You can control the operation of this script by creating and
deleting files
rem in Circle's root directory, either manually or by using the
'shutdown'
rem command from within the MUD.
rem
rem Creating a file called .fastboot makes the script wait only 5
seconds
rem between reboot attempts instead of the usual 60. If you want a
quick
rem reboot, use the "shutdown reboot" command from within the MUD.
rem
rem Creating a file called .killscript makes the script terminate (i.e.,
stop
rem rebooting the MUD). If you want to shut down the MUD and make it
stay
rem shut down, use the "shutdown die" command from within the MUD.
rem
rem Finally, if a file called pause exists, the script will not reboot
the MUD
rem again until pause is removed. This is useful if you want to turn
the MUD
rem off for a couple of minutes and then bring it back up without
killing the
rem script. Type "shutdown pause" from within the MUD to activate this
feature.
SETLOCAL
rem The port on which to run the MUD
SET PORT=4000
rem Default flags to pass to the MUD server (see admin.txt for a
