Br0kEs MUD Client.

GNOME mud client designed to be fast, friendly, and highly configurable.
For more info, read 'PROPOSAL'...

started late aug5 '98

** INSTALLATION **

type "make"

there is no real installation to it, not even a configure file... so I hope
you have all the necessary libs :) I'm building on debian 2.2 potatoe, with
cvs gtk+-1.1.3 and gnome-(something).

** TODO **

1  aliasing, I said tt++ in the proposal, but I'm thinking more like ircII now
2  color and font selection dialog
3  connect wizard that'll store IP, port, and login info
4  automapper that can flag areas and have a 'quick goto' thing
5  logging?
DONE 6  fix the damn colors, I ripped the ansi shit form amcl and it's f*cked up
7  make the 'stat' box (lower left) auto-resizing
8  make the main window start clearing its buffer, maybe only keep the last
	200? lines? definitly has to be an option tho? *shrug*
DONE 9  fix the auto-scroll mechanism so if something happens when you're scrolled
	up it doesn't scroll all the way back down
10 speed up the display, apperantly this is important as proven by zmud?
11 make an equipment tree box (that's automatically updated, and has some dnd
12 make a character view box that shows 'score' and 'level' stuff and auto
	updates itself as stuff changes
13 bugfixes. It feels real robust right now (aug 8 morning) but I KNOW
	there's bugs in it that needs to be stomped
