leading space after prompt on CR+LF
 
In my mud you can add an option to your prompt which does a CR+LF

so normally you would see <prompt here> where
Bob In the forest
Sam In the guild

when I add the CR+LF it displays

so normally you would see <prompt here>
where
Bob In the forest
Sam In the guild

with a leading space.

now I tried this in mudlet to compare (which i dont want to use) with same option set and there was no leading space.

So it must be some cmud option somewhere.

Any ideas?

The only option I can think of that might apply is in the Session section "Use GA/EOR for prompt".

I would just insert the carriage return client side instead.

Something like this should work:

Code:
<trigger priority="10" newline="false" prompt="true" id="10">
  <pattern>*</pattern>
  <value>#PRINT %cr</value>
</trigger>


I usually just suppress the prompt entirely and capture any relevant info to variables where I can display it myself.

Thanks for the replies I tried disabling GA/EOR with no affect.

mud help file on prompt: %- CR+LF

I tried setting the prompt to this and the space is after the >

<wilderness forest (100%hp) (100%m) (100%mv) 8329tnl 3 PM>
prompt <%W (%ehp) (%fm) (%gmv) %Xtnl %T>%->
Your prompt has been set.

<wilderness forest (100%hp) (100%m) (100%mv) 8329tnl 3 PM>
> whe

then back to this:

<wilderness forest (100%hp) (93%m) (100%mv) 8259tnl 8 AM>
prompt <%W (%ehp) (%fm) (%gmv) %Xtnl %T>%-
Your prompt has been set.

<wilderness forest (100%hp) (93%m) (100%mv) 8259tnl 8 AM>
whe


probably on zugg himself could answer this one as mudlet doesnt show the space.

I even installed cmud on a new laptop, used default settings, created a new char and set the %- and it did the same thing

I asked mud implementor to check code evidently the %- just sends \n\r not sure if that helps
