powwow is a client program that implements the telnet protocol, adding some bells and whistles to the standard telnet communication utility, mainly intended for playing multi-user games such as MUDs (Multi User Dungeons).
powwow was originally inspired by Peter Unold's Tintin client, but now only bears a very remote resemblance to the original. It aims to be a simple but very interactive client, and contains features that are interesting for ''immortal'' players, in particular on MUME, though any mud player should benefit from powwow as well.

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
On Arch Linux, snap can be installed from the Arch User Repository (AUR). The manual build process is the Arch-supported install method for AUR packages, and you’ll need the prerequisites installed before you can install any AUR package. You can then install snap with the following:
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/snapd.git
cd snapd
makepkg -si
Once installed, the systemd unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
If AppArmor is enabled in your system, enable the service which loads AppArmor profiles for snaps:
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor.service
To enable classic snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between /var/lib/snapd/snap and /snap:
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
To install powwow, simply use the following command:
sudo snap install powwow
Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap.
