Hello. Recently decided to try MUSHclient and got a little problem. When you do, say, AB NATURE BLEND in zMUD you get:
CODE
2341h, 2341m, 2341e, 7p ex-
Syntax: NATURE BLEND ON/OFF
When you are in the forests, you can blend yourself into the foliage, hiding
from prying eyes.

When I do the same in MUSH I get something like that:
CODE
2341h, 2341m, 2341e, 7p ex-Syntax: NATURE BLEND ON/OFF
When you are in the forests, you can blend yourself into the foliage, hiding
from prying eyes.

I mean where it starts the new line. Other multiline output, like QW, also comes in quite unpleasant way. Tried every single thing in Output Settings, no result. If anyone knows what's the problem, help!

try: CONFIG PROMPT ADD LINEBREAK

Works now! Thanks, Ethelon.

You don't need that option on your prompt. It's actually slightly better to use MUSHclient 3.66+ and check the option for 'Convert GA/EOR to CR/LF' (or something like that). zMUD does something very similar with its emulation codes, though it seems to produce fewer blank lines.

Got 3.66. Convert to CR/LF doesn't help sad.gif. CONFIG PROMPT ADD LINEBREAK works but output is still screwed sometimes. I don't want to go back to zMUD - I want my Python! smile.gif

zMUD can do Python, but it's about as intuitive as getting blood from a stone.

The convert to CR/LF worked for my prompt triggers, but I didn't like the blank lines to I just used a plugin with the OnPluginPartialLine function that calls a 'broadcast' alias to notify all plugins of the prompt parameters and let them do their things.

Try this. Looks like you're not echoing your input.

Go the the Game > Configure > Commands > Check Echo My Input and below check keep commands on prompt line
