context: there are distinctions between different telnet clients, and certainly a distinction from those clients to, for example, the Apache library. In this case, yes, using an actual telnet client for MUD's, where the servers can be quite finnicky, so that API's or sockets just won't work.
How do I go about:
Spawn a new Process for every piped command.
Create Threads that read the output from one command and write it to the input of the next command.
right now there's no output for:
package mud;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.logging.Logger;
public class App {
private final static Logger log = Logger.getLogger(App.class.getName());
private void telnet() throws IOException {
String s = "rainmaker.wunderground.com";
List<String> telnetCommand = Arrays.asList("sh", "-c", "rainmaker.wunderground.com | tee -a -i telnet.log");
String foo = "foo";
ProcessBuilder pb = new ProcessBuilder(telnetCommand);
Process p = pb.start();
}
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
new App().telnet();
}
}
so first I need to capture the result (the log file):

perhaps somehow create a delay while waiting for a response rather than just running the command and exiting?
