This is a python implmentation of a MUD client, using the textual library.
I love automating my character. I love progress bars and other cool UI elements. I want to use a terminal UI to MUD.
I've used tintin++ since 1993, but I've gotten to the point where things I want to do are either too complex, or too cumbersome to maintain in tintin. I wrote tintin-helper which scratched the itch for a while, but I want to do more, and I want to enable you to as well.
This project is named after Farancia abacura, the Mud snake.
I haven't published pip packages yet, waiting on some stability.
Check out the repository and run:
virtualenv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
Note: If you intend on using the dev tools, use requirements-dev.txt
instead.
Launch with abacura
. You can specify --config /path/to/config.file
,
abacura will look in ~/.abacura by default, but a config file is not required.
The app starts in the #null
session. You can use @connect <name> <host> <port>
to connect to a MUD, or you can define a session in ~/.abacura and use @connect <name>
.
For Legends of Kallisti, there is an add-on module on github
at abacura-kallisti which contains
more advanced features that are specific to that MUD.
I'll be working on a user manual when i get close to a beta-quality release.
