MSDP "MUD SERVER DATA PROTOCOL"

MSDP, or MUD server data protocol, is a way for the MUD and client to exchange
information that doesn't necessarily need to be displayed to the user's screen.
Using MSDP variables and a good bit of scripting, you can make enhancements to
the way information is displayed to you from the MUD. You could, for example,
replace the prompt with a changing colored bar of symbols to represent your health,
mana, and stamina. Or, instead of using a graph, you could represent them with
sound using MSP.  If your client supports MSDP, you need not do anything to enable
it. The MUD and client negotiate the use of MSDP behind the scenes.  For a more
thorough explanation as well as a list of MSDP variables and clients that support
it, please visit:

Note that our custom tintin-kallisti-pack makes extensive use of MSDP variables, and
provides audio prompts for both player and enemy conditions. To Learn more, visit:
