command history doesn't seem to work

The command history doesn't seem to store my previous commands in there. I don't know whether this is a bug, or whether there is something I'm doing wrong - can anyone help me?

Under the Display menu, is "No Command Echo" checked?

Is there any possibility of keeping the command history without actually displaying it on the screen? I like having previous commands in scroll back, but the echo is rather spammy.

Nick added this feature for me in 3.29. As per Nick's directions (with VBscript scripting enabled and your script prefix set to /):

Open the world, and then type:

/world.SetOption "always_record_command_history", 1

Then save the world.


This will record your command history regardless of whether or not you have No Command Echo on.

Nick:

Any chance of adding this feature to the GUI? ;)

This really, really helped. I was about to ditch MUSHClient because the command history wasn't functioning. I'd really recommend you make this a default or something, finding weird commandline stuff is more hassle.

Thanks again guys for the awesome client!

Thanks for the compliments!

The problem with making it the default is, that your password would always then be in the command history, which in a shared PC environment, may not be so good.
