For some reason, when I try to highlight text for pasting, it doesn't remain highlighted. This makes it difficult to highlight a large section for cut and...
Ah, that's because unless the output window is paused, Beip will auto- copy any selection you make with the mouse. Since that's the only reason to select text...
... Ahh, that's pretty cool. And yeah, the only reason to highlight text would be to copy it, so... makes sense. Thanks! ... Good to know. Okay. ... Like...
It has been some time since I last had a problem with Beip. While this one is easily cured with a idle timer, which is spammy and annoying when it highlights...
Hmm. Are you using a MUCK, like Furry or Tapestries? If so, then you can just create a script on the MUCK itself that does absolutely nothing except for...
I ran into the exact same problem under Ubuntu. My only guess is that Wine doesn't support the keep-alive protocol properly or at all, and therefore is not...
Thank you! Most of the games I'm on are MUCK. This little code will help out immensely. I'll see if its possible to do the same for the MUSH, MUX, and MOOs...
I'd almost recommend calling the action period "." instead of calling it "nothing" because that means that a user could idle within a text editor as well. The...
... It depends on what MUCK you're on. SPR is the only particularly large MUCK that has a command aliased to period that I'm aware of. I'm fairly sure that...
My wife just got beipMU at my suggestion, and while she's happy with most of it, she's annoyed that there's no 'send command at log in'. Anything that can be...
I can tell you what I've used to have a command execute at login. All you have to do is add another line to the 'connect string', so simply use ctrl+enter to...
on the connect dialog, when you click on the character's name, on the right side of the screen there's a box that says: connect string. in that box you can put...
Heya, I'm a new user of BeipMU, which came recommended by one of the wizards on one of my games upon hearing about my complaints about how slow (and ...
As the FAQ says, I'm suggesting a couple of applications. 1) Allow the taskbar to be reordered (perhaps click'n'drag). 2) An "expansion" of support for...
I'm looking forward to being able to use graphics with BeipMU. I'd love for there to be the little map for people to explore, with characters wandering around...
... The problem with that would be supporting it in such a way that clients that do not support pictures don't throw up 100KB of garbled text. Also, some MUCKs...
... If you set up a "puppet" that had the appropriate receive prefix, you could have a separate window for whatever you want to watch. ... I'm not sure, but I...
Out of curiosity, is the BeipMU help file (which is natively in CHM) available in any other format, like HTML? CHM files can't be opened in Linux -- at least,...
2c) Expand the length of the receive string. Practical Example: I have a watch that's on a room called "Heptite Guild Common Lounge - Shankill". I can't make...
... Yes, I understand that, and yes, that's what it does, but... I was more thinking of something like if it first finds something that appears to be a puppet...
Ah, that's an easy fix, I didn't even intend it to be limited like that since there's no internal limit. It's merely the edit control not allowing scrolling. ...
Hehe, I had to laugh at the "It appears you're trying to use a puppet, would you like to..." clippy style help :) I don't see an obvious way to detect this,...
... The Windows help viewer is a Compiled HTML viewer. I know there are a couple programs in Linux that will view CHM files, like: The easiest CHM viewer for...

Sorry I didn't reply to this earlier. There's a reasonably easy way to do it in script. Try inputting the following line, replacing Muck1/Muck2 with the...
OK. A couple more suggestions. 1) When switching to a character/puppet/whatever that has new activity, some way to designate where the new activity starts....
... What can I say? I'm lazy. ;) (And I tend to watch a lot of areas on different worlds, so setting them all up might be a hassle at the beginning.) ... ...
I've got one more suggestion - a context/right-click menu for each world. So, for example, if you want to kill a world and its window at the same time, you...
