NAME¶
pennmush - The PennMUSH mush server
DESCRIPTION¶
This manual page documents briefly the
pennmush mush server. It was
written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have
a manual page.
This is the
PennMUSH flavor of mud servers of the MUSH branch. It
provides a number of flexible features to enable players to extend the virtual
world. This is done by building new rooms and objects, and utilizing its
internal programming language, MUSHcode.
PennMUSH provides flexible compatibility with the MUSHcode features of
many of the other common MUSH flavors, as well as its own approach to them.

The original TinyMUSH 1.0 code was written by Lawrence Foard, and was based upon
James Aspnes' TinyMUD server. Since then, the code has been modified by the
programmers of MicroMUSE (then MicroMUSH), and Joseph Traub (Moonchilde of
PernMUSH). From January 1992 to January 1995, Lydia Leong (Amberyl of PernMUSH
/ Polgara of Belgariad) maintained the code currently known as PennMUSH 1.50.
From January 1995 on, Alan Schwartz (Paul of DuneMUSH / Javelin elsewhere) has
been maintaining this code, along with a development team.
Big thanks to the developers of TinyMUSH 2.0, 2.2 [2.2], 3.0 [3], Mux2, and
Rhost [Rhost] servers, as well as to the players of Belgariad MUSH, DuneMUSH,
and M*U*S*H, and everyone else using this server!
