Hey,

I was wondering there were any plans on making the color codes hidden in the MUSHclient's notepad. Such as if I were making a ascii picture and I wanted to add color that I could do so and would see the color but not the color code such as {s or {B ... just wondering

I think there is a suggestion to that effect somewhere already. It could be done, but would be time-consuming, as the built-in editor currently just uses an existing 'edit control' for its window.

To change that to recognise MUD colour codes is a major job, the window would need to be written from scratch, which isn't just the displaying code, it is mouse clicks, keyboard typing, selecting, copying, cutting, pasting, the whole works.
