+;;; fibs.el --- Play backgammon with FIBS -*- lexical-binding: t; -*-
+
+;;; Commentary:
+
+;; fibs.com is one of the oldest backgammon servers out there, and it's
+;; accessible via telnet.  This package provides a wrapper to enable you to play
+;; backgammon on fibs.com more easily than just opening a telnet session
+;; yourself.
+
+;;; TODO:
+
+;; - Automatically log in.
+;; - Add a `fibs-quit' function to kill the telnet server and buffer.
+
+;;; Code:
+
+(require 'telnet)
+
+(defgroup fibs nil
+  "Customizations for FIBS, the First Internet Backgammon Server."
+  :group 'games)
+
+(defcustom fibs-server "fibs.com"
+  "The server to connect to FIBS with."
+  :type 'string)
+
+(defcustom fibs-port 4321
+  "The port to connect to FIBS with."
+  :type 'number)
+
+;;;###autoload
+(defun fibs ()
+  (interactive)
+  (telnet fibs-server fibs-port))
+
+(provide 'fibs)
+;;; fibs.el ends here
