I use a portable version of Mushclient which has various bits and bobs built in for the specific MUD I play. In general it's fantastic and all works really well, but if I change the "wrap output at column number" it always goes back to the same number when closing the program and opening it again. I was just wondering if there's a config file somewhere that I could change this number in so that I don't have to change it every time I close and re-open the program.

Any help much appreciated!

It sounds like you're just not saving your world file. Either press Ctrl+S when you make your changes or press Alt+1 and check the box to automatically save on close.

Thanks for the suggestions, I double checked that the "save world automatically on close" option is enabled, and tried manually saving the world with ctrl+s but neither saved the "wrap output at column number" value. It defaults to 213 but I need it to be 164.

I have wondered if it might be that the file is in a location that won't allow it to be altered.. But I have a script file that works fine and presumably it wouldn't have saved the file path if that were the case?

The client is located in:
c:\users\<username>\Documents\MUSHclient
If that's of relevance.

Thanks

In your "world" file you should have something like this:


<muclient>
<world
   muclient_version="5.06"
   world_file_version="15"
   date_saved="2023-05-20 17:25:20"
...
   wrap_column="164"
   write_world_name_to_log="y"
   > <!-- end of general world attributes -->

</world>

Check that the value for "wrap_column" is 164. If not, make it 164.

Thank you for your help, it turned out to be a plugin causing the issue, sorry to have not realised sooner (although ruling out that it was an issue with the client was a helpful step!)

Much appreciated!
