I'm just curious, do any other clients currently support 256-color ansi sequences besides MUSHclient version 4.02 and up?

This isn't really the best place to ask, but I found after a bit of searching this is the thread that started the 256-colour ANSI stuff:

http://www.gammon.com.au/forum/?id=7761

That thread mentions that xTerm supports it, although I don't think xTerm is a MUD client as such.

According to this page:

http://tintin.sourceforge.net/news.php

TinTin++ 1.97 supports 256 colour ANSI codes.

According to this page:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/games/kildclient

Kildclient (Ubuntu) supports 256 colour ANSI.

Apparently so does Wintin.NET version 2.06.

I'm not sure about zMUD/cMUD, perhaps ask on their forum.
