Sure; I created a program called Mire to play with this. It's a multiplayer text adventure that uses refs to handle concurrent access to things like who is in which rooms and who can pick up which items. Since it's just dealing with text, it's still a very simple codebase (around 200 lines). I think it should be pretty understandable. https://github.com/technomancy/mire/tree It's not thoroughly documented, but if you find anything particularly confusing after reading and trying it out, feel free to ask about it. The bulk of the functionality is in commands.clj, with some boring server bits in mire.clj. It may not be the most idiomatic code as I haven't read that much Clojure code from other projects, so I'd be happy to get any suggestions on how to improve that. -Phil --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
