Hi Chad,

Thats great.  It sounds like your just trying to get a handle on things.

I’d start with gurbalib which you can download here:
https://github.com/sirdude/gurbalib

If you read the readme.txt file in the root directory it has instructions for getting up
and running with dgd.  It’s pretty straight forward.  Play with it a little and read the docs and
feel free to ask questions.  Once you have done it a few times you’ll get a better handle on things
and will be able to tackle the mudlib you have downloaded.

Here are some other good online resources:

Thanks,
