Subject: SAPI Module Development.
From: ben@prodigal.ca (Ben Trafford)


	Hi!

	I'm starting work on a SAPI implementation for the TinyMUX server 
(http://www.tinymux.org). Basically, it's like a MUD server -- a 
telnet-based, textual roleplaying game.

	TinyMUX has a built-in programming language usually referred to as 
"MUXcode" or "softcode." Unfortunately, it's extremely limited. I'd like to 
create an internal server function called php() that allows you to pass MUX 
variables to PHP scripts, and receive a textual response from PHP. It seems 
that the simplest way to do this would be to directly integrate PHP into 
TinyMUX via a SAPI module.

	However, I can't find any documentation on SAPI, and most of the existing 
SAPI modules are largely undocumented. Is there anybody who'd be willing to 
chat with me off-list about my implementation? Or could anyone point me to 
an API manual for SAPI modules in PHP?

	Thanks!
