I got MRC working by the looks of it. While nobody responded to my Hellos I at least saw them pop up now. Also /bbses is also working. Thanks to Black panther for tell me the right name to download.
Now. Has anyone setup a systemd startup script for mrc_client? I'm

Can't really help you with that, as I just start everything manually... I really need to get something set up to start all the windows needed...
PORT = 5000 and NOT 50000Now. Has anyone setup a systemd startup script for mrc_client?

I have set mine to run on boot, inside a screen session so you can
connect to the screen session to see what's going on if you want to see stuff going on...
At the command line, type "crontab -e" (without the quotes and hit return Right under the comments, as the first command after your mystic starts, assuming you start mystic on reboot in the crontab to, add this;
@reboot screen -dm -S mrc_client /bin/bash -c "cd /mystic/ && ./mrc_client.py mrc.bottomlessabyss.net 50000"
Save and exit, this will load mrc_client on startup and make it run
inside screen.
To access this screen from the cli once it's running, you can type;
screen -r mrc_client (and hit return)
To exit a screen session, hold CTRL and press 'A', then keep holding
CTRL and press 'D'. This will disconnect from the screen session while leaving it running.
If you want any further information, feel free to ping me a message =)

having an issue with my script not returning control to a command prompt after running it. The start line looks like:

So I followed your instructions and created a cron job that works
perfect now.
It is much better then the semaphore event I wanted to use.
Now the client is connected and the chat in the BBS works fine. I also have the stats up and running in order to see online users.
