Being a console client TinTin++ works with most screen readers, and its accessible non-graphical command interface makes the client easy to use for visually impaired people using a screen reader. Protocols supported by TinTin++ are MCCP (Mud Client Compression Protocol), MMCP (Mud Master Chat Protocol), xterm 256 colors, true colors, and most TELNET options used by Muds. This allows you to modify the appearance, interface, and behavior of most console apps. Most console programs (including bash) can be launched from within the client, allowing you to create highlights, substitutions, triggers, timers, aliases, divert text to different subwindows, combine multiple streams into one, etc. While TinTin++ is primarily a Mud client it can be used as a Unix shell command language, multiplexer/demultiplexer and automator. It is also possible to run an ssh daemon on a Mac OS X, Linux, or Unix machine, giving you remote access to your scripts and client wherever you go with an ssh client or web browser. To run the client on the iPhone and iPad requires iSH, the iOS equivalent of Termux. To run the client on Android or ChromeOS requires Termux, an Android terminal emulator and Linux environment that will also run on the Chromebook and Kindle Fire tablet. The WinTin++ Windows port is available as an installer.

Installation on Mac OS X is easy by using the Homebrew package installer.

The TinTin++ source code is available in the download section and compiles on most Linux/Unix systems as well as Cygwin. The install section explains how to install TinTin++ on several operating system. For bug reports, questions, requests, and suggestions, you can visit the github forum or the discord channel. Several Mud clients use the tt++ scripting language, so you might already be familiar with some of the commands from using another Mud client.
