Playing a character that is playing a character seems too many levels deep.

Having a blast doing it on The Network.

@SquirrelTalk You're welcome. It is always a little rough at the beginning when trying to figure out which tool does what.

python and pip: this is vaguely equivalent to PennMUSH's hardcode.
virtualenv: this is like a workbench where you keep specific tools for building Evennia birdhouses
git: this is sort of the download utility to get everything else

As of last night Raevnos pushed the SQLite branch to master which means PennMUSH has the json_query() and json_map() functions for parsing JSON strings. The code for PennMUSH to receive JSON data is already there but not hooked to anything, so it should be a quick fix to allow Penn to receive JSON and pass it to a handler.

The website never needs to send softcode, that was just an example. For a lot of things, you will want dedicated commands that are just used by the website to generate a JSON response that don't have a terminal equivalent (e.g. context menus, player lists, etc). But for something like a +finger or +who you can show the standard text in the terminal, show a popup version with links and images on the side, embed links and images directly in the terminal text, or some combination of the 3.
