Certain muds have huge amount of output. Currently, selected outputs can only be sent to notepad. Allowing selected outputs to be sent to a separate(movable) client window, with color and all, can be very useful

You can have multiple notepad windows, and they can be moved and resized, inside a script if necessary.

You can make a "dummy" world window (with IP address 0.0.0.0) and then you can use scriting to write to that window (or make multiples).

sorry for the double post... will read up to find a script that does that :)

How exactly would that work? I'm assuming since the normal way of sending stuff to a world window is something like (In perl) $world->tell("Hello!"); so you could just set the $world var before? I'm a complete newbie to MC, so I'm mostly just guestimating. :)

I'm actually very interested in this mainly because with the client I'm using now I gag most of the spam and send it off to a dedicated window.. So that's pretty much the first thing I want to re-create in MC

Take a look at this page:

There is an example of sending stuff from one world to another.
