Is possible to wrap say/tell/wisper text at 80 chars?

I noticed that the tell/say/wisper text is wrapping at a bigger line length than the room desc.

The room/object/mob descriptions wrap at 80 characters. The commands like say for example is lost our of the mud's window. The result is very ugly.

I wander if there is a way to change the line length wrapping for those to fit with the rest of the mud.

What makes you think that everyone wants exactly 80 character width? With big screens, some people want more, and with laptops they may want less.

Modern clients (eg. MUSHclient) wrap at whatever width you want, the server doesn't need to do it.

What is probably happening is that the area files have descriptions "hard wrapped" at 80 characters, however it isn't wrapping says/tells. In fact it isn't wrapping anything, the wrapping you are seeing is built into the area files.



Get a proper client. MUSHclient can be downloaded for free from this site right here.

The hard-wrapping in area files is actually the ugly bit. If you have a big screen the fact that the descriptions only take 1/3 of the width of the screen is what looks ugly.

I use mudlet.
It seem by using mpechoat solved the problem with alignment.
Thanks for help

I very strongly agree with Nick. Room descriptions are one thing, because they may include ascii art which requires specific formatting, but I never want the server to forcibly wrap chat messages from other players. My client wraps lines just fine.
