scandum will become famous soon enough
This is the latest and greatest (trying to sound positive) TinTin++ with some minor improvements.

Runs on:

- OS X 10.3 (compiled binary on web site)
-Most linux systems (compiled binary on web site as well)
-Cygwin, instalation instructions on the web site, if you follow them it will run pretty much the same as on a linux sytem.

Some of the new features:

-mccp v2
-naws (window size/resize reporting stuff)
-up to 1 million lines of scroll back
-grep on the scroll back buffer (#grep gossip, etc, to display the gossips in the buffer, beats special screens if you ask me)
-full color html logging / buffer dumping
-patched up and improved scripting engine
-full vt100 support (when using a vt00 console)
-macros
-improved prompt capturing (script examples for it on the site)
-easier configuration
-text formatting which pretty much works like sprintf
-wordwrap
-ability to read multi line scripts (bug free now)
-slightly faster than the 1.5 version

Downsides:

-Not 100% compatible with every old tintin script (#readold command available that deals with some issues)
-Scripting engine works slightly differently, which can be hard to adjust to for some people. (had 1 angry email so far about that)
-Some odd behavior on red hat 9.0 has been reported, (wasn't surprised) which might take a little to be sorted out.

All in all it's a nice up to date mud client now, and I'm open for suggestions on further improvements.
