Pike

So you are developing in Pike?

ppp and pikepsyc

With ppp and its PSYC.pmod you have a basic PSYC implementation enough to write your own server.

However, the ppp implementation of the protocol is not compatible to the one from psyced. For a fork of ppp which speaks the old PSYC syntax compatible to psyced, check out pikepsyc.

There is however no ready made application that would give you a fully featured, ready to run server like psyced is. Yet, ppp and pikepsyc do a job up to a certain point, and in certain areas they are more advanced than psyced.

psyced and Pike

psyced itself is getting more pike-compatible. The bin/psyked launcher script runs a proto-psyced in pike with a working PSYC parser, renderer and a few other goodies. The intention is to keep the decade of experience that went into psyced also under a language driver which is faster than psyclpc, more extensible and with a more evolved networking engine easily consenting for binary data and more.
