MOOing @ Newcastle-JAVA

Welcome to the world of the MOO. Here we will be discussing the operation of the HippoMOO hosted on the University of Newcastle's servers. Mainly, we will be hosting a group of tutorials from the MOO itself, so as to provide an easy-to-use interface, rather than stepping through each room in the MOO HELP rooms. Please note that if you have any problems with these posted tutorials, please feel free to contact the Members of the Newcastle-JAVA Operation, but please do not hold us responsible for any mis-information they may contain. These tutorials documents were not authored by the Newcastle-JAVA Operation members. They are as-is from the HippoMOO help rooms.

The sections that you will find here, are: The HippoMOO Help Tutorials, Using ANSI Colours, Setting Up tkMOO.
