- WinWorld v0.2a
- Copyright 1994, Eric Stern.
-
- This is my brand new Winsock MU* client. I am releasing it for ALPHA testing.
- Its been working fine for me, but I have no idea what it might do to your
- system. Since this is the first testing outside my system, it might have
- some pretty serious bugs. You may wanna wait for the first beta. That
- shouldn't be more than a week or so.
- For you brave ALPHA testers, give it hell and lemme know how it works.
- Any bugs/suggestions/etc, just send email (use the built in email sender!).
-
- Features currently implemented
- - auto-login
- - multiple simultaneous worlds
- - only one world displayed at a time (no window clutter!)
- - scrollback for all worlds, displayed or not, configurable # of lines
- per world
- - Command history, configurable size
- - TELNET protocol support (kicks in only if connected to port 23)
- - accepts ANSI ESC-sequence color codes (mostly works)
- - ultra nifty "world-button-bar" for quick world switching.
- - handles MUD-style partial line prompts (who thought THAT up?)
- - "Windows-based" configuration file (WinWorlds.ini)
- - full logging (by world, colours stripped)
- - definable function keys
- - built in bug report mailer (doesn't require any other software!)
-
- Known bugs:
- - black text on a colored background doesn't quite work
-
- Installing:
- Nothing to it. Unzip into your favorite directory. Move the .vbx files from
- the zip files to your \windows\system directory. If vbrun300.dll isn't in
- your \windows\system directory, you better go get it and put it there.
-
- The latest version of WinWorld is always available via anonymous FTP from
- ftp.mgl.ca in /pub/winworld.
-
- Note: Previously released as WinFugue. I changed the name at the request of
- Ken Keys, author of TinyFugue.
