I heard Gath and Twar had a baby... It's called Gwar. I hear it's really into heavy metal these days. |

I have a few players that still use the Kokua helper, another Java helper. There was JTWAT, but it is no longer supported. |

Not really a helper, but a lot of the old folks used Zoc and some archaic language that it supported to write scripts with. No worries about it being broke by the changes to the game. |

And we're not old....yet But you are correct. it won't be broke by changes, and if anything, a few scripts will need to be adjusted. |

i use attac because the crippled version is free, so i get a free grafix map and a convo box. swath cant be used crippled for more than a month, if it wasnt limited in such a way id use it instead... |

I don't really play anymore, just goof around a bit, but I use twassist and write in Telix SALT. Can write REXX and qmodem also, not very elegantly however. |

What does everyone think GATH needs? I am aware of the bugs that effect me and I will try to address those, but if you could offer suggestions for GATH, from the viewpoint of a TWX front-end, light-weight helper what would it be? If you could design your own helper, what would you want it to be like? I don't have much time for free projects but I hope to rewrite GATH when I find time this year. My design goals are below, they are not new goals because this is firstly a proper rewrite: * Compartmentalize all ANSI traffic, send chat to a separate window, stats, etc. * All separate windows will be accessible from the taskbar. * Macro support. * Sound event support. * No internal scripts, let TWX do that. * What else??? |
