Well guys,
I'm an 'original' programmer going way back - so I still love assembly. The next best thing for me is C++ leaving out as much of the 'class' definitions as possible AND, commenting my code (intelligently).

I am writing my client in C++ so I can port it to Unix and Linux. Granted, the client code will require some changes for the other platforms since things like 'CreateWindow' for MS Windows are different calls to linked libraries. However, these modifications are not difficult to implement from the original source code.

I propose that we create this game as an open source project so that it can be expanded on. I will provide complete copies of my client source for free download.

Ptolemy

Though we often ask how and why, we must also do to get the answers to the questions.
