  • BBS-independent MRC client (door)?

    From opicron@21:3/126 to Alpha on Tue May 18 18:01:48 2021
    MRC is where it's at right now, especially with all the meatups that have have one that was BBS-independent, and just ran as a door program? E.g. native Linux, Windows, Pi, etc. Any BBS system could use it, then.
    I have made a mystic IRC chat (which doubles as live pager/chat with sysop
    and multinode chat) It connects to an (password protected if chosen) channel
    on any irc server (with ssl if needed). I am planning to release it soonish,
    I can even host the irc channels if required.

    Any pointers that developers in this community can give me, would
    be Al> greatly appreciated :)
    Log into bbs.opicron.eu to check it out, give me a yell if you have some questions.

    oP!

    While I'm an MRC guy, I like your work and will head over to checkout what wizardry yer cooking up with IRC.

    I liked your text-page sysop work and wanna see what you've done now.

    I wish there was a better/good page sysOp thing in Mystic... I don't even think the stock one really works - or at least not on 2o.

    Nope, wasn't setup to as there were addons that did it. Doors and the like. I'm not sure if g00r00 has fixed it, but there have been a few addons added
    in the last few years that do it. Hopefully this new IRC one can do it too
    and we'll use that and have an IRC for each board or something.

    Seems like we're drifting further and further from why Gryphon made it in the first place - to test the new python hooks on Mystic. We might as well go back to old IRC in a separate window the way we used to ;)
    Pretty much all BBS used are telnet like IRC can be, which is pretty much how that started (as chat clients). It seems many want to turn MRC in to a monster - will it grow till it can send and receive email? As the old Unix

    I just want a chat door that does what my IRC chat door does, but you know with more people interacting. ;)

    You need to fix your node address. :)

    I think MRC client/server is a closed-source project. You have to
    contact the group/programmer who's responsible and ask for his
    permission before making an attempt.

    It's open source. There are 2 python files and 1 MPL file. There's nothing hard coded, and Gryphon even encouraged other people to edit it.

    Stackfault edited the shit out of it and he hasn't been sued yet.
