Hi,

I want to create a MUD <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MUD> client (a client for games played over Telnet) with Pharo, but I'm stuck on how best to use Pharo as a Telnet client. I've heard of the cURL plugin, but I'm not sure if that can be (easily) used for anything other than file transfers. Even if I built and installed it, I'm not confident I'd be able to tell for certain whether I can use it in the way I want. I also found this <http://map.squeak.org/package/14bcecc6-dbb8-4866-bb0c-25278ca882ba>, but that's about eight years old and its homepage link is dead, so it doesn't look too promising. I found TelnetProtocolClient in the Pharo image, but that does not seem to be at all what I need.

Can someone with experience with telnetting from within Pharo/Squeak point me in the right direction?

Thanks, Aidan
