Connect message on new session

I was wondering about if there's a way to remove the new session connect message... It was a shock moving from Registered to Free years back and having the message come back, which actually made me go back to using 3.85 as my core, though I've updated bits around it (the lua files, etc).

Basically, I'm wondering if there's a way to make MUSHclient not display the

This message does not appear once you have registered.
(The above links can be found under the Help menu)

and makes me desperately want to kill it with the knowledge I was a good user and actually paid, nevermind that it's free now. :)

Well, considering it is free it is just a small plug for the author. :-)

However you *can* get rid of it.

Assuming that you have Lua as your scripting language, and "/" as the scripting prefix (defined in the Scripting tab), just go to Scripting->Scripts and put:


!/DeleteOutput ()

in the box World Events -> Open.

That will get rid of it.

The message does *not* occur when you connect, but when the world file is opened.

Thanks. :) I love the program, and as I said I did register it back when it was Shareware. Seeing it pop something up when the world loads just terrifies me as a matter of memory. :)
