NAME

       tinymux - The TinyMUX mush server

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page documents briefly the tinymux mush server.  It was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does
       not have a manual page.

       This is the TinyMUX flavor of mud servers of the MUSH branch. It provides a number of robust features to enable players to extend the  vir-
       tual world. This is done by building new rooms and objects, and utilizing its internal programming language, MUSHcode.

       TinyMUX	doesn't  provide the superset of features available in other MUSH flavors, but those it does implement provide a stable and robust
       environment that performs as well as or better than that of its peers.

CREDITS

       TinyMUX 2.3 is derived from TinyMUX 1.6. It is maintained by Stephen Dennis (Brazil@BrazilMUX) and would not  exist  without  the  generous
       contributions  of  many	individuals.  Ideas  for  features, occasionally code, documentation, project support, bug hunting, came from many
       places, including TinyMUSH, ChaoticMUX, RhostMUSH, and PennMUSH.

       We would like to thank the following people:

       - Barbarella@Pacifica for making it fun, for proving to me that MU'ing is a Good Thing (tm), for pulling me into hosting and  server  work.
	      Without the choices she made, MUX 2.0 would never have happened.

       - David Passmore for his long time care and maintenance of TinyMUX.

       - Andrew Molitor, for the radix compression library, and some wonderful utilities.

       -  Soruk  from  AuroraMUSH for his long time contributions toward making and keeping TinyMUX Linux compatible, as well as the sample config
	      file found in CONFIGURATION.

       - T. Alexander Popiel for help with conceptual issues in general and specifically with the parser.

       - Steven Legowik (BEM@Erisian.net) for Makefile, cross-platform work, and modifications to Backup.

       - Virginia Legowik (Audumla) and Lilith@Sandbox for committed readme and helpfile work. For infrastructure support with web sites and mail-
	      ing lists.  For making a team.

       - Ashen-Shugar and RhostMUSH for their bug reports and support.

       - Robby Griffyn and ChaoticMUX for bug reports.

       - Lew Newby (Dragon) for his stress-testing, cross-platform builds, and bug reports.

       - MacGuvyer @ Pacifica for a Unix patch for WoD-realms which led to porting all of MUX 2.0 back to Unix.

       - Nick Gammon for the initial prototype of NT IO Completion ports.

       - Judge Dredd@Pacifica for specification of WOD_REALMS.

       - The large body of people who reported bugs or made useful suggestions along the way:
	      Aranor,  Asia,  Audumla, Barbarella@Pacifica, BEM, Carmilla@Pacifica, Chimera@Umbral Shards, Corum, Dark City@Pacifica, D'ceit@Santo
