I also had this problem at 1st, when barrett sent me this version..

the thing is: commands starting with '/' are sent to the server,
and the others are interpreted by the client..

the starting sequence for 1 player is:
connect localhost
/connect playername
/map dummy
/join
/start

there is a shortcut for all this: 'go'
or, without the final /start: 'co' 

        barrett, wouldnt it be better:
        /connect clientname
        /map dummy
        /join playername
        .. makes more sense to me.

well..
among the known bugs there are the server net input ignoring
multiple rows in one buffer, it just parses the 1st one.
(the client code already got this fixed..)
