        I don't mean to be terribly rude here, but I feel inclined to
point out that this is something that you should already know BEFORE you
muck around with the code.

        I think your foresight is admirable, locating something new and
wanting to know what it is/does, but I think you will find your greatest
gains by learning how to program, before you attempt something that is as
complicated as CircleMUD.
