	DikuMUD - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		DikuMUD is a multiplayer text-based adventure game (a type of MUD) written in 1990 and 1991 by Sebastian Hammer, Tom Madsen, Katja Nyboe, Michael Seifert, and Hans Henrik Staerfeldt at DIKU (Datalogisk Institut Københavns Universitet), the department of computer science at the University of Copenhagen in Copenhagen, Denmark.
		For the same reasons DikuMUD is not Free Software as defined by the Free Software Definition, because it fails to meet the requirement that the program gives "The freedom to run the program for any purpose" (it forbids commercial purposes).
		The first DikuMUD is usually considered to have been AlfaMUD.

		DikuMUD is also licensed software; you are legally bound to comply with the original DikuMUD license as well as the CircleMUD license if you wish to use CircleMUD.
		You may under no circumstances charge money for distributing any part of dikumud - this includes the usual $5 charge for "sending the disk" or "just for the disk" etc. By breaking these rules you violate the agreement between us and the University, and hence will be sued.
		If you publish any part of dikumud, we as creators must appear in the article, and the article must be clearly copyrighted subject to this license.

		Most of the designers of these games seem to have garnered much of their knowledge of the field from having played one of the big three (and that one is usually EverQuest...).
		People who have played DikuMUDs and want to run their own often hack the code to make it work how they want it to work.
		DikuMUD is open source, EverQuest isn't, so each "child" of EverQuest must be recoded anew.

		DikuMUD is a MUD type which is newer than LPmud and yet, in most cases, it is not at all as powerful as LPmud.
		The most fundamental criticism concerning DikuMUD is the fact that it uses alot of hardcoded features.
		This means that adding something like a new object type or a new command requires recompilation of the server, and a reboot of the game.

		We have ceased to support the original code in any way, since so many "improved" versions have started to circulate" [1.3] "Where and how do I connect to a DikuMud?" DikuMuds are located on different computers throughout the world.
		This is helpful because the actual format for area creation and many of the different bitvectors vary greatly from mud to mud.
		Most of the new releases of DikuMud clones have this problem fixed, if you are using the original DikuMud code, then look at the init_socket function in CircleMud or Merc, it will point you in the right direction.

	Definition of MUD
		Avalon, the Legend Lives, started in 1989, was the first MUD to combine a consistent fantasy story-line with a commercial venture.
		In 1991, the release of DikuMUD (which was inspired by AberMUD) eventually lead to a virtual explosion of "hack-n-slash" MUDs based on this code and its derivatives.
		Though seeing some decline in the past few years due to the advent of graphical MUDs, the MUD scene is still very much alive on the Internet, and can be accessed via standard telnet clients, or specialized MUD clients that give a more pleasant user experience.

		The crux is the fact that you can log onto the mud right now and see dozens of text strings that are identical to those from the original DikuMUD.
		This is undeniable evidence that this MUD at bare minimum is plagiarizing DikuMUD and is therefore in violation of the DikuMUD license.
		While this does not prove that the code is the same, it does go along with all the other evidence out there to really make one wonder.
