VMware's free products also offer a good way of getting "cranky" apps like zMUD running under Linux. It's not as nice as the full desktop integration Wine provides, but it tends to work better with ol ...

I understand that the easiest reponse to this is "Well, don't open the program more than once" and I agree that it was probably never intended to be opened more than once. But what you're suggesting w ...

The software does dump the entire package from memory to disk, by the way. You can test this yourself: open CMUD twice, change two different things in the same package, one in each copy, then save bot ...

There are two primary problems with that, from my perspective. The first is that I want this package to be usable in two concurrent CMUD sessions -- I multiplay frequently, and so do many other people ...

I've seen this same bug as well, usually following a crash when closing/exiting. Looks like something is corrupting layout files.

I'm running Vista as well, by the way, so we may have a common thre ...

Confirmed.

It would be really helpful if we could use explicit path specifiers (i.e. the //Package/Class/Var format) to explicitly specify what it is we want to target with this command and many ot ...

You can set read only mode on the package properties page, it's in the bottom right.

As for the reload from disk option, is this not what the refresh button does? It's on the toolbar next to the "p ...

One thing I've noticed, though, is that if you try to define a variable like this:

#var test 1 _nodef //untitled/test

from a window that isn't the "untitled" window (I'm using the untitled sessi ...

I'm working on creating a generic library package that will be shared by all of my characters on a single MUD, with utilities, common triggers, etc, but completely untouched by character-specific data ...

Addendum: variables referenced by explicit package context cannot be used in this example either, such as:
:@//myOtherPackage/myClass/myVar:#SHOW Hi
Edit: Addendum to the addendum: This appe ...

The topic pretty much says it all.

%query((&id=$myLocalVar),MyDB)
will return blank, but
#VAR @myRealVar $myLocalVar
%query((&id=@myRealVar),MyDB)
works ...

I'll second this. The regular documentation updates are fantastic, and would be even more so with a "what's new" feature so we can quickly review the changes.

#VAR myVarName "myValue" _nodef {//myPackageName/myClassName}
I redid all the variables in my triggers and scripts (regex replace, I love you!) and it works like a charm now. Not ...

The @// syntax was exactly what I needed. It doesn't work for "varname = value" assignments, but it does work as the class parameter to the #VAR command. My package is now pushing all of its character ...

I'm trying to create a package which can function as an independent "library" module shared between multiple characters with their own unique settings. I don't want to clone the package, because I wan ...

If a user-defined function which operates off of an %exec() calls a sub-function which also uses %exec(), the final results are returned and executed as commands rather than simply returned as a strin ...

My question would be: Can you reliably cause zMUD to fail by refeeding the dumped data back through? If so, then I'm sure Zugg would want to know the conditions surrounding this abberant behavior so h ...

Now, see, that would be simple, elegant, and make perfect sense. I couldn't possibly do that.

In all seriousness, thank you once again. My anal-retentive nature had me categorizing and filing all t ...

Using #debug test.txt trace.txt do you notice any differences in text placement (ie, plain text that shouldn't be where it is or even extra tags that ZMud properly handles, thereby ensuring you no vis ...

The zMUD automapper works pretty well on an MXP-enabled MUD with proper line tagging, but every now and again it will spontaneously decide to create a new room instead of moving to an existing known o ...

In zMUD, each window on screen had its own unique settings file, and triggers, aliases, etc were constrained to individual windows.

In CMUD, theoretically, at least, each window should be able to d ...

Only windows that have a network connection will be able to send commands to the MUD. Have all your windows got network connections?
Yes, I did double-check that the window had a network connection a ...

Local and MXP variables seem to be unusable in the multiplaying ":<windowname>:<command>" construct as the window name. I understand that they are unusable in the command context (since it ...

I'm working with an MXP feed that creates and uses a lot of windows via line tagging. I have a number of triggers that need to be selectively applied to one window or another, so I have them separated ...

So I have an MXP tag defined as:
<!ELEMENT clearStream EMPTY>
<!ATTLIST clearStream id>
I'm receiving a tag in the form of:
<clearStream id="inv">
from the MUD and I h ...
