I'm wondering if it would be possible, or too much work to make the tinymux server accept commands from a simple irc client. This irc client is part of another program and I'd like to get the irc portion of the program to connect to tinymux. It can already connect to a server and show the main welcome message. The problem is with the way it sends text. The text is always prepended with

What is the problem with that exactly? You can always strip it off in your preliminary processing. Maybe have a second port for the IRC connects, and if someone uses that, always strip off that string from incoming text.

Yea, that's what I'm trying to figure out how to do. My other idea is to have some sort of wrapper or proxy that uses sed or something to remove the privmsg part before forwarding the traffic to the mud server. I just want to know how hard all of this would be, or if there's available tools to accomplish this already. I don't know much c++ at all.
