38862, Mud client and OS.
Posted by Dallevian on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
Poll - Which mud client do you use and for which operating system?

Question - I've been using zmud5x for several years on a Windows XP machine. Just bought a new imac and short of using virtualization it will be time to find something new. Suggestions?

If you're used to zmud you'll want to do one thing...

#config {repeat enter} on

Makes it so that you just hit the enter key repeatedly to repeat the last command = no "!" necessary. Makes the UI pretty much like Zmud from my perspective.
38868, WOW! thanks

I use tintin also. Never knew of that command.
How do I save my script for next login or do I have to
copy paste it from somewhere each time?
38869, I cut and paste all my alias/triggers in each time.

Didn't like it at first but once I got used to it I like being able to move stuff around and organize all that in the .txt.
38940, A few questions.

When I play a war, per say.

I see a guy I am going to fight and set up this alias
#alias jj bash newbie

His groupmate comes along
#alias kk bash groupie

How can script it so jj = bash target, kk = murder target
with just having to enter #target = newbie or whatever?

I suck at scripting and Did not understand the helpfiles

Already told you what I do, but for the sake of completeness...

Home: yTin on XP on a PC.

Work: yTin on XP running inside Virtual Box (on a Mac).

I prefer Parallels to Virtual Box, but the latter is free.
