A few of my friends from computer science, led by me,
are developing a MUD game. I plan to run the server from home,
and we plan to write the game in two source files.
(Yes, we are determined to do this from scratch,
without Lima or Mudscript.)

The first source file, client.cpp, needs to send text commands to the
server, containing data such as this: "command=north; user=gameplayer"
And the server responds by changing the player position on the player
file, and sending "room=northern" to user gameplayer.

Is there a command and library dealing with internet data
in C or C++?

Any help or links to helpful websites would be much appreciated,
and it would be even better if anyone would like to help
develop the game.
