Insert Tab A into Socket B
Sometimes I feel like a total imposter. Â Other times I feel like telling people to get off my lawn. Â Sometimes itâs both, like when Iâm trying to figure out how to establish telnet connections with Ruby. Normally, Google is full of helpfulness about Ruby. Â Any given subject has a dozen different guides, plus the official documentation. Â Anything I can find on the subject of telnet seems to assume I already know what Iâm doing, and I eventually figure out that the net-telnet gem canât cope if you donât have a prompt. Â Which I donât. Â Note to self: Â Gem authors probably arenât MUSHers.
So then I realize that at least for the moment, I donât need the input at all. Â Iâm just trying to write straight to the game. Â All I need is a socket.
Long story short, Iâm stuck at the Day Job on a Saturday, but over my lunch have polished up the script that will unformat a whole directory worth of MUXcode and upload it. Â I just need to now tailor it down so that it can also do a single file.
