Aardwolf health bar plugin

The plugin below shows a nice health bar under your command window, so you can see at a glance your health, compared to the mob you are fighting.

To use it, download the code below and save as Aardwolf_Health_Bar.xml in the Aardwolf subdirectory below your Plugins directory. If you haven't used any Aardwolf plugins before you may need to make the Aardwolf directory.

Alternatively, RH click the link below and choose "Save Link As" (or "Save Linked File As") to save the linked file.

http://www.gammon.com.au/mushclient/plugins/Aardwolf/Aardwolf_Health_Bar.xml

This plugin also uses the "stats detector" plugin, so you also need this file:

http://www.gammon.com.au/mushclient/plugins/Aardwolf/Stats_Detector.xml

The "Stats detector" plugin uses telnet negotation, so you also need this file:

http://www.gammon.com.au/mushclient/plugins/Aardwolf/telnet_options.lua

In a standard MUSHclient installation these three files should to into this directory:

C:\Program Files\MUSHclient\worlds\plugins\Aardwolf\
