Nice. I still use VMOO (anyone remember VMOO)! Is that rmoo/emacs on Fedora?

There's a nice collection of MOO resources: https://lisdude.com/moo/

It is too bad some of the old MOO dbs like ScrabbleMOO and NYC MOO are lost to history...

Is VMOO still available for download? I never used it ever but I was looking to show my 13 year old son LambdaMOO yesterday and I couldn't find a user friendly GUI client for him to run on Windows. I wasn't going to unleash emacs on him, and tkMOO isn't ideal, either.

Looks like the VMoo website is still there but is having... issues. But this is the last release. If you have a high DPI display you may find it slightly lacking, even with Windows compatibility settings applied. Which is a shame because VMoo was always the best client.

Most GUI-users use Mudlet (https://www.mudlet.org/) these days. Unfortunately, as far as I know, it lacks proper local editing support. If you're feeling adventurous you can work around that with something like MUDMixer (https://github.com/tms88/mudmixer) to proxy local editing.

Thanks. End goal for me is I am (or someone on the project will be) building my own client, but it will be likely tied to the semantics of my own core, and will work over websockets.

My son came to me (after he ran out of his time limit on Baldur's Gate 3) and asked me what I was working on. I didn't know how to explain it. Or show it. :-)

I hope the VMoo author will consider releasing it open-source.

You can try MUSHclient. You'll have to fiddle with it to make it go under Windows 7 and later. There are linked install instructions on the page:
