README.md

The point of this project is to enable signing up for tilde.town via an ssh connection.

It ought to work something like this:


ssh signup@tilde.town

       <ascii art>

       tilde.town


a creature stands before you. what does it look like?

  > a floating gray cube
    a calico cat with softly glowing eyes
    a squid
    something else

cube: you'd like to sign up for tilde.town, yes?

 > yeah
   nah
   why should I?

you say, "yeah"

cube: by what name should i call you?

  ~cowcow________

cube: unfortunately, i already know someone by that name. what else can i call you?

  ~shelf_________

cube: excellent, hello ~shelf. have you been invited here by anyone i know?

 > yes, i have an invite code
