mooix
March 30th, 2004
Most MOOs run off in a corner of a unix system, as a single process.
They re-invent their own programming languages, which are often not
very expressive or powerful, their own object oriented database
systems, their own multiuser support, and essentially everything
you’d find on a unix system. Mooix
turns this on its head, and rather than trying to reinvent unix
inside a MOO, it turns the unix system into the MOO. It uses
every unix strength possible to the advantage of the MOO; its
multiuser nature, preemptive multitasking, disk caching, device
abstraction, numerous
programming languages, editors, libraries, etc. With Mooix, unix is the MOO.
