Mud forced clear screen
 
In certain mud they have a clear screen command I was wondering if there was any way to bypass this so it will not clear my screen in zmud

You can try going to View, Preferences, General, click the + next to General, Emulation and uncheck VT102 emulation.

This may fix the problem... if it does, it may also disable some other MUD features.

If this is the case or it just plain doesn't disable the screen-clear, then a plugin could be written to remove this specific control code from the MUD output.

You may also be able to use an ansi trigger to block the clear screen code.
#TR {%e[2J} {#SUB {}} "" {ansi}

That should be the clear code, it is often used with a positioning code of 1;1h. If that is the case in your mud then you will want to add that to the trigger.

Your MUD may have an option to toggle the clear screen. If so, that would be your simplest solution.
