Zugg Software :: View topic - zMUD stripping out part of the MUX command

Newbie Joined: 13 Oct 2002 Posts: 1

For whatever reason, with the newest version --- 6.39a --- when I enter MUX commands with the format "+foo/bar", zMUD sends only "bar" to the MUX. It works if I preface the command with '@fo me=', due (as I determined after testing) to the special character @. Does anyone know what option I need to turn off so that it will let me enter the command normally, without @fo me=?

i'll go ahead and say this before you get blasted by someone else :P
read the beta forum

its part of the new OOP zuggs adding and for now the only thing you can do is prefix the character with a tilde

Okay, Emit, I'll go ahead and blast then.

While 6.39a is the newest version, it's clearly marked as a BETA version. That means it's NOT an upgrade to 6.16, which is the latest PUBLIC version, but is an upgrade to any earlier BETA version you might be using.

When you choose to use a BETA version, you become a BETA tester. As a BETA tester, you are expected to be aware that one of the drawbacks of BETA versions is that they frequently have bugs. That, after all, is the main purpose of BETA testing -- to provide additional eyes to help the programmer find the bugs. To this end, Zugg has set up a separate forum, the BETA forum, where the BETA programs and their bugs may be discussed.

If you intend to continue as a BETA tester (if you intend to continue using 6.39a or any other BETA version), you should obtain access to that forum NOW. Access is readily available, it should only take you a minute or two to complete the application process. Once you have access, you should become a regular (daily) reader of that forum. That's your responsibility to Zugg in return for the privilege of using one of his BETA programs.
