So .. it seems there isn't much done for MUDs on IOT .. weird! 

Still, there's this one project http://git.savsoul.com/barry/esp8266-Mud , by Barry. Works for the ESP8266, but it seems it isn't that straightforward for the ESP32 C3 mini I have chosen. There are memory issues, particularly on the socket side, so.. nope.

I'll just be piggy backing on the mudserver.py file done and keep the mudpi file from the original project, to get more of a MUSH and less of a MUD, to stick with the project objectives. Not really to level-up characters on a business card, more exploring =) 

I'll try and push the code on github - https://github.com/kelu124/esp32-mud/ , and see if I can set it up in a way that allows both my rpi5 and the esp32 to use the same mud engine, leaving the mudserver bits to their respective platforms.

We still have a bit of time till the end of the contest!
