mapper config help (Discworld MUD)
 
hi, i've got a problem configuring my mapper:

a typical 'look' output for a room in my MUD (Discworld) is something like this:

> look

The Tsort bridge over the river Tsort. The river Tsort to the northeast and southwest and some plains are to the east, west, southeast and northwest.
It is a warm spring prime's afternoon with almost no wind and some puffy clouds.
There are five obvious exits: south, north, down, climb east and climb west.
>

okay, so, there are basically 3 lines in a single paragraph, the 0th line is the description, the 1st is weather report and 2nd are the exits...
any additional lines contain information about contents of room.

this is all pretty simple to configure, but there are 2 problems:
1) there are no room names, and the decriptions change as time goes by, so i really don't know how to make the mapper confirm movement

2) sometimes, when enter a command like 'e;e;ne;ne;e;e;n', the mud gives the list of these queued commands and outputs room info as i go through every one of them.. but the output is one big paragraph and the mapper loses track.. can i make the mapper put a blank line after every room? how do i do that?

please, any help on the above 2 problems is welcome...

thanks in advance!

Salud y Libertad!
