lyntin-devl

[lyntin-devl] Some of us still using Lyntin.

[Jalisco M. <ma...@gm...>]

Hi Andre,
..and Welcome =)

I still play with Lyntin, pretty much for the same reasons that you do.
Lyntin was left wonderfully - imho, but unfortunately, no one is
maintaining
it at the moment. I am still trying to get a decent grasp of Python
myself...so unfortunately, I cannot be of much help - atm. Usually, if you
look at the history of notes, mostly they are to myself, or so dumb (I
later
figure out) that thankfully no one responds rudely =)

Now, to my question...I have used Lyntin over the past few months on Mac
OS X
(really, the only decent client), with Python 2.5 and 2.6.  Tkui did not
work,
got some kind of funny error.

Lately, I have been using Linux, and I had no problems running Tkui on
Python
2.5.  But, now that I am running 2.6.2, I cannot start tkui =( I get a
different error than I got on the Mac, but maybe someone can help me
out. Tkui
rocks, and I wouldn't mind using it again...

Here it is in it's entirety (thankfully, kind of brief):

e@KubuntuBox://home/e$ runlyntin -ui tk
Cannot start 'tk': ui 'tkui' does not exist.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/lyntin-4.2-
py2.6.egg/lyntin/engine.py", line 1037, in main
    uiinstance = base.get_ui(modulename)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/lyntin-4.2-
py2.6.egg/lyntin/ui/base.py", line 34, in get_ui
    raise ValueError("ui '%s' does not exist." % uiname)

    sys.exit(0)
SystemExit: 0
goodbye.


Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Thanks

Re: [lyntin-devl] Anyone still using or working on Lyntin?

[Brandon M. <bra...@gm...>]

I'm still using Lyntin, and am (slowly, I am afraid I am only a neophyte
programmer with limited time) trying to develop a graphical mapper feature
for the tkui, which works from the default download.

As to the plugin repository, it is broken. In response to my queries will [
wi...@bl...], the former maintainer sent me to:

http://bluesock.org/~willg/dev/lyntin/<http://bluesock.org/%7Ewillg/dev/lyntin/>

This contained a few more plugins and descriptions which I found very handy
to thumb through.

I can't speak to a wxPython UI, however.

Good Luck, and you're not alone.

[lyntin-devl] Anyone still using or working on Lyntin?

[Andre M. <an...@an...>]

Hi there,
I recently came across Lyntin looking for a mud client that I could extend
easily as a replacement for TinyFugue.

My wife still plays muds and have been using TinyFugue for years. I've
written a few scripts for it, but I'd rather be using Python than a
TinyFugue's cumbersome scripting syntax.

So anyway, I've already made a few changes to Lyntin and created a plugin,
and was wondering if there is anyone else still using it, or even doing any
development on it? Is there still anyone using this mailing list?

I'm interested in the UI side and I saw at some point there was a
wxPython UI, but I can't find any trace of it. The plugin repository
on the Lyntin webpage also seems broken.
Does anyone perhaps this UI, or any others?

Regards,
Andre'

[lyntin-devl] Evaluating mud data - creating list...

[Mac D. <ma...@gm...>]

The problem I am trying to solve is elegantly creating a (kill) list, upon entering a room, and then removing the name(s) when I leave the room.

certainly, simple KoS triggers would function the same - but they aren't as nice.

For example, I enter the room, my list is populated with "Some Bloak." An attack function then attacks 0 in my list. When I am done looting, it removes it from the list.

I think I can figure out the list parts...

Just trying to figure out where to look in the client for examples of populating the list - or evaluating mud data + adding the bloaks to my list. I have looked up and down the action.py and highlight.py modules for hints, but I have not been able to figure it out. I am guessing it is related to the "def mudFilters," therein.  Or, those seem like possible examples to build from.

I got lost reading through the Argparser.

Oh, I am basically just trying to build a module.

I slept about an hour and a half last night -- but the sun is coming up, and the coffee is flowing =)

I will keep trying to figure it out...

Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

[lyntin-devl] Offshoot of my old lyntin layer available

[Brazen <odb...@ya...>]

Very alpha stuff based on on what I stuck in the development sandbox back in 2004 and recently picked up again.  I had some free time so I cleaned it up and added a bare minimum of docs.  http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~odbrazen/leanlyn/trunk/revision/64/README.txt

It is useable but not very polished.  I added a '#help' command just today.  Useful if you play 3kingdoms and more so if you are in the juggernaut's guild (it has extra screen scrapers for that).  Enjoy or ignore at your leisure.

[from the README]
Leanlyn is a telnet client written in pure python with two goals:
  1) Noting is special
  2) State based and not trigger based

  1) Nothing is special
     The core API is tiny; so tiny that basic commands like '#connect' are
     actually not in the core! i.e. they aren't special and work with the same
     API as any code you write.  So the best examples of how to use the client
     are included in the distribution.

  2) State based and not trigger based
     Instead of reacting to single lines of input Leanlyn adds the concept of
     'catchers.'  Catchers watch for all the status messages (hpbar, stats,
     skills, etc) and update the state of the session.  The cather module
     contains utility classes for parsing multi-line input and updating state.

     Instead of writing triggers you write little functions that check the
     state and then do something appropriate.

     If someone has written a mudpack (see the mudpacks/ directory) you don't
     have to write a single regexp or parser;  just define the login as using
     the mudpack and you get all the parsing for free.

A big hat tip to Will; my code started as something that was layered on top of Lyntin and then evolved to its own thing.  If any of the code is the same (the tkui is derivative, I think everything else is clean) then I throw myself on the mercy of the court and/or will buy him lunch. I published it under an Apache license.  The GPL is problematic for python and other non compiled languages according to the GNU foundation and PSF - it is untested in court if imported python code counts as linked or not.  The PSF asks all contributors so sign an Apache licensing agreement so I'm using one as well.

Re: [lyntin-devl] Tkui in Lyntin?

[Mac P. <ma...@gm...>]

Thanks for the tips.  I played around with it for a bit, and couldn't quite
figure out the code to change the keysyms.

I tested it out on a Linux system with Python 2.5, and it seemed to work.
Hehe that was the first time I saw that UI. It is very nice.

I will play around with it some more as time allows.

Re: [lyntin-devl] Tkui in Lyntin?

[will <wi...@bl...>]

The error is this:

TclError: bad event type or keysym "KP_Up"

Maybe the keysyms changed in the version of Tcl/Tk that comes with 
Python 2.6?

[lyntin-devl] Tkui in Lyntin?

[Mac P. <ma...@gm...>]

I have having problems with this, and while still learning Python, I cannot
decipher what it means =)

I type:

runlyntin -ui tk

At the command prompt.  I have never got it to work, and have just used the
basic, default textui for the past 2 or so months. But, since I want to
actually play some in the near future, I figure I might as well figure out
what is the issue here. =)  Also, I will try to teach myself some python.

I have Mac OS 10.4.11, and Python version 2.6.1, and Lyntin 4.2.  I have not
done any altering or hacking to the client as of yet, so it should be pretty
straight forward.  I did update Python to 2.6, from the default on the
system which I think was 2.2 or something old.

In the interim, I will try to figure it out...if I get too bored, or stuck,
then I will hit the Python learning...=) Oh, one last thing, cursesui seems
to work ok.

Thanks in advance.

Something between the computer Lyntin is running on and 3k is dropping 
the telnet session when no data is passing through for some period of 
time.  I don't know offhand how to figure out what though.

My vote is that you should idle in spammy rooms.  Jump comes to mind.  :)

I don't really know what you're talking about here.  Too small to 
warrant using setuptools?  Acceptable egg?

It's not really a problem with Lyntin.  You should get the same behavior 
with any long-running TCP session connection where there are periods of 
time when no data passes across the session (telnet, ssh, ...).

You could write a plugin that sends an IAC AYT which is telnet parlance 
for "are you there?" every 5 minutes.  If 3k handles that appropriately 
or ignores it, then you should be all set.  If 3k does something stupid 
with it like tries to handle it like a command, then this won't work 
very well since it'll violate the botting rules.

You could set up a ticker that sends a #cr every 5 minutes.  But if 
you're away from your keyboard when that happens, then you're violating 
3k's botting rules.

That's all the ideas I have.  Hope it helps!

[lyntin-devl] Connection reset by peer

[Munelear <mun...@gm...>]

I love lyntin- it's been a very stable, reliable, light weight client.
About half a year ago I started getting "Connection reset by peer" issues
while idling (so it's not a critical problem, like mid-fight).  My setup
involves SSH'ing to my server and then connecting to a screen that has
lyntin running.  When I'm done playing I'll get somewhere safe to idle and
detach the screen, log out of the SSH connection.  For several years this
worked fine in all cases.  It continues to work fine when I have an item
(like the energy staff) that sends a text string from the mud every couple
of rounds to spam the connection as a poor man's keep alive.  If I am naked
with no spam at regular intervals I'll receive the disconnect.

I can think of a few things that happened about half a year ago:
1) I moved from an apartment to a house.  I kept the same DSL modem, router,
etc so my network from the modem to my server remained the same.
2) I did an apt-get dist-upgrade
3) I installed lyntin 4.2 and subsequently removed it.  I didn't like the
integration with easyinstall- lyntin is too small to warrant that kind of
integration (not to mention by the time I downloaded lyntin 4.2, the
acceptable egg list was stale so I had to modify the install file to point
to the current list of easyinstall eggs... apparently old eggs are removed?)
4) Rastafan started making "optimizations" (automatically turning brief on
if you run too fast without brief on)

I've tried to include as much information from lyntin as I know to.  If
anyone has any ideas on what might be causing the error or possible
solutions I'm all ears.  Also if there's more information that would be
useful in diagnosing the problem, I'll gladly include it.

[lyntin-devl] Mentor

[Licea <est...@gm...>]

Would anyone like to be my mentor? =)

I promise to learn, you promise to teach...

Have gone through a python tutorial, and will go through another one or
two--these python tutorials are all over the net!

Anyway, looking more for a Lyntin mentor...to help me (or we can learn
together) - how to make sweet agents/bots.

Thanks..

Peace

[josh j. <jos...@gm...>]

If anyone cares, I think they finally ironed out the python telnet
bugs at the most recent pycon.  I don't mud anymore after being real
powerful on one and then deleted for political/contrived reasons (and
after 'donating' $200! gaggggg!!).

[lyntin-devl] You are not alone...

[Mac D. <ma...@gm...>]

I have returned to mudding, after a five or so year long hiatus.

However, I no longer have the time for 15 hours grinding in front of the keyboard, without learning something useful - programming for example. =)

Anyway. I have already started learning Python, and am in no way a professional, or am I even hinting at the possibility that I could contribute to this project.  I just want to figure out some python along the way, program some modules, etc..and a kick ass client.

There doesn't seem to be too much Lyntin activity from Will, which clearly is because he no longer muds, and has said as much =) That is cool. Good luck man! Thanks for leaving such a stable client behind.

Is anyone working on it further?

I was just curious, mostly, looking for some type of community to solve problems as they arise with various programming endeavors I might attempt.


This post is for no other reason than to give others hope that you are not alone. If I develop as a programmer and can contribute even a simple token, I will be happy to do so...

See you soon

Re: [lyntin-devl] Access to modules and ui on the Sourceforge page

[will <wi...@bl...>]

The links on that page aren't working for me either.

I think this project is dead right now.  I no longer do any mudding and 
don't have the time to work on Lyntin anyhow.  My hope is that someone 
decides the project is worth working on, offers to take over, moves it 
off of SourceForge and gets things going again.

[lyntin-devl] Access to modules and ui on the Sourceforge page

[Brandon M. <bra...@gm...>]

I can't seem to access the example modules and ui on the Sourceforge page:

http://lyntin.sourceforge.net/repository.php

Is there a different link or something that would allow the modules to be
listed?

Clicking on the links seems to result in nothing but a dead link.

[lyntin-devl] Project status?

[Walter M. <em...@sp...>]

Is anyone still using this?

I'm considering doing some hacking on Lyntin.  I've been learning
Twisted lately, and I think it'd be neat to see if I can translate
Lyntin into a single-threaded non-blocking-I/O-based program built on
top of that framework.  The only practical upshot would be getting to
then use all the other tools Twisted provides, and I still don't yet
know what I will do with that capability.  The insults module for
doing fancy TTY stuff might be a good place to start.

Ideally I'd like to maintain as much compatibility as possible with
existing modules, but I haven't looked too much at the internals yet,
so I'm not sure how practical this is.

I may or may not ever finish this, but in case anyone cares, I'll be
keeping my WIP available via a public git repository at
git://git.ethermage.net/lyntin-wm -- I'm also going go go along with
the previous authors' inclinations and assign copyright for anything I
do to the FSF.

Right now, that repository only contains a cvsimport from the lyntin40
module here on SourceForge, and there're no hooks and no mailing list
for updates.  It may be a week or two before I get around to
publishing anything, depending on how much free time I find myself
with.  If things pick up enough for it to matter and anyone besides me
cares, I'll set up a web interface to the repo and some way for people
to get notified of updates.

[lyntin-devl] [DIFF] Fix 'splitchar' in config file

[Rob <gen...@gm...>]

Hi,

This is applies to Lyntin 4.2.
If you have a line like so in your config file for the new 'splitchar'
option, you get a traceback when starting Lyntin:

splitchar: ^

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/lyntin/engine.py", line 1077, in main
    exported.lyntin_command("%sread %s" % (commandchar, mem), internal=1)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/lyntin/exported.py", line
110, in lyntin_command
    myengine.handleUserData(text, internal)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/lyntin/engine.py", line 459,
in handleUserData
    input)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/lyntin/utils.py", line 402,
in split_commands
    __change_command_split(splitchar)

  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/re.py", line 207, in escape
    return pattern[:0].join(s)
AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'join'


I'm not sure if I've got the syntax right or not. I tried quoting it,
but that didn't help. If it's a bug, here's a fix.
Attached is a patch to utils.py.

[lyntin-devl] lyntin 4.2 released!

[will <wi...@bl...>]

I release Lyntin 4.2.  Took a long time to get around to doing, but now 
it's done.  Details on the web-site.

I'm done with Lyntin at this point.  If Eugene is also done and someone 
else wants to pick up the torch, let us know on the lyntin-devl list.

Rock on!

Sorry for the late reply, I took an email vacation for six months (not recommended, this requires
taking a general vacation for six months too).

Leantin development is dead.  It worked great for me but I haven't MUD'd in years (judging by the
general MUD population, neither has anyone else).

It was interesting because instead of being regexp driven it was state driven.  Regexps noticed
information from the game world and updated the player/map/combat state.  Actions were divorced
from regexps and instead fired based on the local copy of world state (e.g.
session.player.vitals.stats['hps'] or session.world.map.curr_loc).  Consider it
Model-View-Controler for MUDs.  Once you wrote a 'mudpack' for parsing the MUD's particular status
bar, busy messages, etc it was easy to write complex behaviors that just looked at state.

I actually used the block based regexp feature ('Catcher' classes can have a block start re, block
end re, and a block parse method) to parse live county voting results during the '04 election.  I
was hoping to get a jump on the networks by comparing live county website results with publicly
available party registration and past voting results.  It turns out the websites got updated late,
if at all.  But it was fun trying.

It was basically my toy and I don't think anyone else ever used it.  It was nice to play with the
dusty corners of python (it uses a few metaclasses) but I wouldn't write it the same way today.

I've rolled a Lyntin v.4.2 rc1 together.

Get it here:

   http://bluesock.org/~willg/download/lyntin-4.2-rc1.tar.gz


I'll let it hang out for a week.  If no one has any problems and/or I
don't get any response, I'll release it October 6th (or thereabouts).

[lyntin-devl] lyntin 4.2 - last call for changes

[will <wi...@bl...>]

Hi!

I didn't get very far with Lyntin 4.2 as far as I can tell.  Also,
there wasn't a whole lot of conversation surrounding what fixes Lyntin
4.2 should have.

The current changelog is something like this:

 - added a session_change_hook (thanks Tuomas)
 - fixed line regexp to use finditer instead of split--much
   faster
 - fixed the read command to use HTTPResponse and HTTPConnection
   objects
 - changed the if_cmd to use python syntax rather than c syntax
   for &&
 - added handling for horizontal tabs
 - added additional loop_cmd sytnax:

     #loop {tom,pete,harry} ...

   allowing it to loop over strings
 - moved the UI to the main thread
 - added catching of EINTER in cursesui
 - updated to GPL 3
 - changed setup.py to use setuptools

I think that's it.  Most of the work here was done in 2004 and 2005
and has been sitting around since then.

Should anything else go in?  Last call for changes.
