On the subject of graphical MUDS, I would add that a beta version of a graphical engine called xmud has just been released. Here is the URL--> http://193.96.238.31/xmudweb/ Personally, I suspect that a more fruitful route for MUD developers would be to add inline graphics to the room descriptions and perhaps hyperlinks. Fireclient and ZMud both support HTML variants, which means that the graphics could be stored locally on the client as part of an initial download (I think ZMud either supports or will support an encryption system). Moving to the obligatory Circle reference, the only code changes would be to enable it to determine the capabilities of the client and send the appropriate code and HTML codes.
