If by "MUD-like" you mean that it's fundamentally based on scrolling
text and inputted commands, you may be able to just skip the GUI
altogether and use the console (print() and input()). That'd save you
a lot of trouble. Alternatively, it might be worth going the other way
and actually making it a MUD. Wait for a socket connection, let the
user TELNET in. Your GUI would then be an actual MUD client, off the
shelf, giving you all its features absolutely for free. Either way,
you put zero effort into building a GUI, and you get something every
bit as powerful as you could build manually.
