Parsing lambda moo dbs.

Post by Vitaly » Thu Mar 12, 2009 5:30 pm

Found this nice utility for easy object browsing. Very useful for lambdaMoo, GhostCore and others.

http://neil.fraser.name/software/moobrowser/

1. Download python.
2. Run python script from website on the core db and make the xml file.
3. Open resulting .xml from step 2 in explorer or firefox first.
3b. If the xml can be read, then proceed to next step, if not, you may have to get rid of some binary characters such as "escape codes" "beep character" etc. Once that is done, you should save xml and try step 3 again.

4. Download the moobrowser, place .xml inside the same directory, run index.html.

5. Browse objects/verbs/properties.
