Subject: Still looking for a Ruby MUD client?

Look no further!
http://jrandomhacker.info/Muby

For the longest time, I was searching for a pure-Ruby mud client.  I
even found a few which threatened to let me do Ruby scripting, but
nothing paid off.

Until last weekend, when Martin Kihlgren emailed me in reference to my
age-old search.  Actually, a few interesting projects came at me
through that thread.  Apparently he had a mostly-working client that
had been on the back burner since before I started looking!

Over the weekend I worked with it, and have resolved nearly all of my
issues and wrote decent documentation.  It's been put forth as a
RubyForge project and has since had the old files and my revisions
released:
http://rubyforge.org/projects/muby

Here's the selling-point:
*** IT ACTUALLY WORKS ***

Yes kids, it works.. has one dependancy (ncurses), is tiny (60k!), and
has complete scripting features.

The only outstanding annoyance is that I'm having inconsistant issues
with colour output.  I only get brights.  =/


I'm making all kinds of fun newbie mistakes hacking around.. but it
works and it'll only get better from here.
