What MUD is this? Which client are you using? Which version?

What do you mean "when i try to hight light the blank spots .... it shows up as blanks"?

Can you take a screenshot?

If you drag over the whole paragraph to select it, and copy it to the clipboard, does the "blank" text get copied OK?

i am playing NCmud.. come check it out.. its sorta like D&D.. anyhow. the addy is ncmud.org 9000

if i highlight the text and copy and past i see the item/mob
however when highlighting the text block doesnt hightlight .. i stays black.. so if you hight light the sentence, the hightlight breaks where the word is.

i am using MUsHClient v4.61

Well I logged on and didn't see any problems. Can you give an example or screenshot?

Possibly change ANSI colour configuration and check "Use Custom Colour 16 as default" and then change Custom Colour 16.

UPDATE:
the fix was within the mud .. simply type :

colour map black red

that should change the black/black text to red/black text.. it was an internal MUD feature.
