Has anyone hacked (or thought about hacking) a doorway through which UNIX
applications might run?

No, though we have thought about it.  However, judging from Pavel's opinion
about extensions to moo, it would never be included in any of his upgrades.

	I'll admit I've given it some thought.  It brings up something MUDs
haven't really dealt with in a big way in the past: system-wide security
issues.  Suddenly you have to trust the MUD at the same level you trust the
"Login" program.  Either that, or you have to arrange to run a local connection
to the MUD as a shell, somehow.

	Aside from that, it's an interesting idea.
