Not considering the security concerns, is there any way to let a user run 
a shell command and use it interactively without blocking the mud or any 
other adverse effects?  I would like to be able to just use some 
commands, especially a visual editor like vi or pico or something from 
within the mud, but am not sure how to do so, or if it is even possible.  
Has anyone attempted this, with or without success, who could offer some 
insight into this subject.

Thanks,
Chris
