- MCM 1.2
- -------
- See docs file for instructions.
-
- MCM is a chat-like program similar to the IRC, but designed for
- smaller, pre-arranged group meetings. It contains a built-in
- split-screen mode (using just the telnet client) providing seperate
- input and output windows, as well as compatability with standard
- MUD style clients (such as TinyTalk).
-
- Features include a flexible dice-rolling routine, ability of the room
- leader to have full control over the meeting room (allowing private
- conferences, gagging of users, snooping on private conversations
- between users, and other similar features), as well as VERY LOW cpu
- usage (typically around 0.1% usage). Furthermore, through the use of
- "personality modules," MCM can be customized to allow for a number of
- special situationsa found in various games.
-
- This program will be uploaded to various RPG-oriented FTP sites,
- tentatively including:
- tybalt.caltech.edu /pub/adnd/*
- greyhawk.stanford.edu /D_D/*
- potemkin.cs.pdx.edu /pub/frp/*
- quayle.mu.wvnet.edu /pub/rpg/*
- garfield.catt.ncsu.edu /incoming/Dnd.stuff/*
- ftp.nau.edu /public/rpg/*
- The program may be redistributed in its unmodified form, provided
- there is no charge for the program beyond normal distribution costs.
-
- Changes in this version from 1.1d
- ---------------------------------
- There is now a short module mcm_person.c which may be modified to give
- your installation some personality. You may redistribute your own
- version of this module with no restrictions. Included are two sample
- modules (for *DD and ShadowRun) and one third-party module (a generic
- script-oriented module).
-
- Also, there are a number of minor additions and changes to improve
- operation of the system, and hopefully make the system easier to
- configure and compile.
