I can't find an explicit limit, although I admit I didn't look too hard (looking through [1]). I do imagine that there would be a 'sensible' limit of 1024, or 2048 based on what you said.

Technically, everything is in the same stream of bits and bytes. The only method to get at said data in MUSHclient is through OnPluginPacketReceived, where you can filter it out also.


Out of curiosity, is there any limit on the amount of data that can appear (from server to client) inside the telnet negotiation sequence? I saw a reference to 2048 bytes, but that was from client to server.

Well, the plugin is too large for the 6000-character maximum even on its own, so here's a pastebin link:

I'm proud to release ATCP v2.0! This version replaces the old interface with a PPI-exposed pair of methods, allowing client code to register method callbacks. It also requires MUSHclient v4.46, in preparation for the public release of PPI, but you could get PPI separately and change the version requirement if you really wanted.

The full ATCP plugin is posted in the next post due to length. I've pasted my Roomname plugin here, as an example of how to use the new ATCP interface.

<!DOCTYPE muclient> 
 
<muclient> 
<plugin
   name="roomname"
   author="Soludra"
   id="e94f6bd8509a2b00d10cb226"
   language="Lua"
   purpose="Adds a Nexus room name to the status bar"
   date_written="2008-08-23"
   date_modified="2010-01-15 12:27:00"
   requires="4.35"
   version="2.0"
   > 
</plugin> 
<script><![CDATA[

-- Used to load the ATCP interface
PPI = require("ppi")

-- Will contain the ATCP interface
atcp = nil

-- Executed when you get an ATCP message!
OnRoomBrief = function(message, content)
  SetStatus(content .. ".")
end

-- Use this to load the ATCP library
OnPluginListChanged = function()
  local atcp, reloaded = PPI.Load("7c08e2961c5e20e5bdbf7fc5")
  if not atcp then
    -- Normally, you might put an error or a warning note here.
    -- Roomname won't do anything if ATCP isn't available, so
    -- it's safe to leave it running until ATCP comes online.
  elseif reloaded then
    -- Registers a function to call when Room.Brief is received.
    atcp.Listen("Room.Brief", OnRoomBrief)
    -- Sets the local 'atcp' variable to the global created before.
    _G.atcp = atcp
  end
end
 
]]></script> 
 
</muclient>

Uploaded now.

Suggest in future you update the version number in the plugin, like this:


<muclient>
<plugin
   name="ATCP"
   author="Soludra"
   id="7c08e2961c5e20e5bdbf7fc5"
   language="Lua"
   purpose="ATCP data"
   date_written="2008-09-18"
   date_modified="2009-04-23 12:15"
   requires="4.35"
   version="2.0"
   >
</plugin>

Uploaded a new version to http://www.jonathan.com/atcp/atcp.xml, to fix a bug related to enabling modules more than once. (Would appreciate it if your mushclient.com version was replaced, too?)

EDIT: oops, -now- it's uploaded.

Yeah, in fact ZMP looks almost identical to ATCP.

I think it is the same kind of reason you had VHS and Betamax, with the latter losing even though it predated VHS and was superior. It just gains more popularity because more people use it.

After reading your description of ATCP, it looks like it's basically the same idea: a way to communicate information without using the main communication channel.

What's the difference more or less between ATCP and ZMP? Probably just that the former was popularized by the Iron Realms games...
