When I was at graduate school(1993), I visited a company(Hangul &
Computer) where I had interests to work. There I heard about
Objective-C first. Coming back to lab, I found a book about
Objective-C in lab's library. As I thought it's a good way to write
a program to learn a new language, I started a text/ascii based MUD
project. Later, those codes became a base for Nexus: The Kingdom of
the Winds.
