[DGD] zlib, mccp and dgd

[chris .]

I just want to check myself for understanding, as i think i see a course of action.

-I would create an interface for the mud protocol in dgd.
-I would create a kfun, based on the compression algorithm of one of the many zlib libraries around, which would accordingly encode(or not) text using 'compress', 'compress2' etc.   Users with mccp compatible clients would recieve processed text with the mode of compression their client supports.
-I would not need to worry about flushes, since compressed text would not also be encrypted.

If im on the right track...thanks for the discussion.
chris
