MudWin (Windows)

 

MudWin is a good Windows client that works with major TCP/IP software.

Requirements: You must have a WinSock v1.1 compliant DLL providing TCP/IP access to the Internet. The subdirectory containing WINSOCK.DLL must be in your PATH before starting Windows or MUDWIN.EXE must be placed in the same subdirectory as WINSOCK.DLL.

Distribution: Get it from the MudWin Home Page or (a maybe old version) from TECFA's FTP server
