Introduction

Welcome to the MXP library homepage.

The MXP library implements the parser for the MUD eXtension protocol. This protocol aims to provide a better experience for MUD players. For more information, have a look at the MXP documentation.

Status of the library

Most features of the MXP protocol are already implemented in the library.

The following MXP features are not implemented (yet?):

Response for the <VERSION> tag doesn't support sending of STYLE and REGISTERED information
<!TAG> is not supported, because Zugg has added this to the spec after I've gotten my copy, he didn't announce it anywhere nor did he update the timestamp of the MXP document (!) - hence, <!tag> is not supported atm
QUIET parameter for the <RELOCATE> tag is not supported; also, <RELOCATE> does not have a closing tag in this implementation
<SUPPORT> with parameters is not supported

Some of these features might be implemented in the future (if I see the need for them).

Clients using this library:

My client, KMuddy, supports MXP using this library since version 0.7pre2.
The MudMagic client supports MXP since version 1.7.
WinTin.net supports MXP since version 1.08

Clients planning to use this library

The KildClient plans to use libmxp.

If you plan to implement MXP in your client using this library, please let me know, so that I can add you to this list :)
