Trying to make my own system

Well, I'm trying to get back into playing Lusternia, and I figured while I'm at it, that I'd like to try to make my own system and put into practice what I've learned of python. I have a few major obstacles though, and I would greatly appreciate any advice you might be able to give.

First things first, I'm going to need a client. The requirements for me in a client would be: has to work with vista, has to be free, and I'd really like to be able to use python to build my system. That being said, I tried downloading MUSHclient, and I really doubt that it is still compatible with the python programming language/vista/me using it or any combination of the three. When I tried using his example script, I got the error message listed below.
Error number: -2147221005
Event: finding CLSID of scripting language "Python"
Description: Error -2147221005 occurred when finding CLSID of scripting language "Python":

Invalid class string

So, unless you can tell me how to fix mushclient, it's not in the running.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You need to install Python seperately. Try here: http://www.python.org/download/

Already have/somewhat know how to use python, which is why I want a client that'll work when using it.

And no, I'm not using python 3.0, using python 2.5.1.

You have to install a WSH compatible Python, such as ActivePython, if you want to use it with a Windows client like MUSHclient (or CMUD).

After looking at the forums on the mushclient website (something I should have done much earlier), I found what my problem was and fixed it.

For the moment, I'm just going to dick around with it, although I'll probably have more questions later. imstupid.gif
