Version 4.43 has been the official version for a while (August 2009), however it does not include a whole lot of recent improvements.

The Downloads page has been changed to suggest version 4.61 as the official version, plus a stand-alone .zip file has been created for users who want to run it under Linux, Windows 7, etc.

The really major improvements over the last year have been:
  • Improvements to telnet subnegotiation, which particularly helps if you are using ATCP/GMCP sequences with MUDs that support it (for example, Aardwolf, Iron Realms Entertainment MUDs).
  • Assorted bug-fixes and scripting enhancements.
  • Upgraded internal libraries, like SQLite3, PNG.
  • Graphical mapper plugin and module supplied for MUDs that support it.
  • Fixed problem where triggers that did "omit from output" would also have things that they displayed omitted.
  • New debugging "Summary" feature to help resolve problems with the client.
  • Some new, useful, plugins included, such as a calculator plugin, an automatic world-saver, and so on.
  • Miniwindows can now be resized.
  • Added support for rotating, shearing, reflecting, scaling and transforming images in miniwindows.
  • Included LuaCOM and LuaSocket. This makes it easier to do things like text-to-speech.
  • Improved filtering support for lists of triggers/timers/aliases/variables in the GUI interface.
