MUSHclient doesn't have an RDESC tag as such - you have probably implemented it in your MUD.

However, if MUSHclient receives a <p> tag - which it might as a sub-tag of RDESC, depending on how you have defined RDESC, then the <p> tag causes MUSHclient to treat the text inside <p> ... </p> as a paragraph - this is by design.

See the MXP spec at:

I quote here:

Mark a paragraph.  A paragraph is a set of separate lines sent by the MUD which are recombined into a single line by the client.  Basically, all newlines sent from the MUD between the <P> and the </P> are ignored.  To force a line break, use <BR>
