Mud Sound Protocol - GnomeMud can play sound effects and music on MSP enabled servers.
- MCCPv2 support.
- Triggers and Aliases with perl compatible regular expressions.
- Internalization - Comes with many translations and handles character sets properly on non-ISO-8859-1 (latin1) muds.
- SOCKS Proxy Support - Versions 4 and 5.
- Multiple mud connections.
- Separate input history for each connection.
- Profiles - Each Mud can have it's own preference settings.
- RFC compliant telnet implementation - You should never notice this but it ensures things run smooth.
