It's rare that mud prompts can't be turned off or at the very least
changed. Often times, typing help prompt will give you all sorts of
information about what you can place in your prompt, and what
information it can give you.
I hate long prompts, and generally just change my prompt to a

Not much point to that. Lynx is written in C, and it works fairly
well. It's already portable to many environments, including dos.
Not sure a java port would be helpful.
Besides, C is a compiled language, Java is an interpreted one.
Interpreted languages are slower than compiled ones (in

Too bad java never got dos-compatible, if it had maybe lynx would be
running on java by now.

Dos?
I quit dos because its single task nature.
Pluss dos can't do usb anything.
Dos can also not do the advanced networks we have.
No one uses modems anymore really.

It's not the blindy way of access, it's the lowest common denominator of
access. There is a difference and if you haven't worked in a11y, you
won't appreciate that difference.

coffeemud's code base has been used by others to create additional muds

Ok.
I have worked as an accessibility tester before.
True mostly websites, granted a little software a few games but mostly
websites.
The rest was concept research.
I am no pro spec ops though, just a contracter.
I have not had anyone that wouldn't change their stuff but most stuff is

You'd be surprised what you can do with dos these days. There are usb
drivers for dos, and there's even a version of dos that is still being
developed, it's called freedos.
It is generally a single tasking system, but there are programs to solve
that problem if it's really needed.
There's

Mudschool in coffeemud shows you when you get to the correct room about
its config options. For some reason coffeemud throws ansi and that messes
up screen displays. Prompts usually hang out near the bottom of the
screen if you set lines and columns correctly too. That way those can

Nah, it's easy to make an accessible java program. Making it not
accessible actually takes work believe it or not.
Unfortunately, most folks don't like the default output routines java
gives us, so instead of using those, they'll draw things on the screen
instead of using the provided text

Actually msdos does have a version online
I actually disagree.
The sighted world is opening up and education is the way.
Yes the blind etc should have more involvement.
But do we really want to go down the blindy way of access.
Ie this program needs jaws to work and will cost a lot of cash.
