I guess that's why people on this list still spend some (though definitely most) of their time discussing server ideas. The task of writing the "perfect" M* server starts to be daunting as soon as you scratch the surface even a bit, because such a beast a) would be the foundation for much more than on-line games, if done well, and b) definitely requires the convergence of multiple, far from trivial technologies. Distributed systems, language design, compilation, databases, persistence are the ones that I think of most readily in connection with M* server design - your mileage may vary - and each is in and of itself a vast and complex field of study. But hey, that's why this is a fun subject. ;) -[Morendil]- The impossible we do today; allow one week for miracles. _______________________________________________ MUD-Dev maillist - MUD-Dev#kanga,nu <A HREF="http://www.kanga.nu/lists/listinfo/mud-dev">http://www.kanga.nu/lists/listinfo/mud-dev</A> </PRE> <!--X-Body-of-Message-End--> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <HR> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <UL><LI><STRONG>References</STRONG>: <UL> <LI><STRONG><A NAME="00790" HREF="msg00790.html">[MUD-Dev] Embedded languages, object persistance... ack.</A></STRONG> <UL><LI><EM>From:</EM> "Joe Kingry" <jkingry@uwaterloo.ca></LI></UL></LI> </UL></LI></UL> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00791.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Embedded languages, object persistance... ack.</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00793.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Embedded languages, object persistance... ack.</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Prev by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00791.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Embedded languages, object persistance... ack.</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00800.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Embedded languages, object persistance... ack.</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Index(es): <UL> <LI><A HREF="index.html#00792"><STRONG>Date</STRONG></A></LI> <LI><A HREF="thread.html#00792"><STRONG>Thread</STRONG></A></LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> <!--X-BotPNI-End--> <!--X-User-Footer--> <!--X-User-Footer-End--> <ul><li>Thread context: <BLOCKQUOTE><UL> <LI><STRONG>Re: [MUD-Dev] Storing tokens with flex & bison</STRONG>, <EM>(continued)</EM> <ul compact> <LI><strong><A NAME="00841" HREF="msg00841.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Storing tokens with flex & bison</A></strong>, Jon A.
