MUME Help

Index: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

CHANGE HEIGHT, CHANGE WIDTH


Syntax:
  change height <6..65535>
  change width <16..65535>
These commands tell MUME the height and width of your screen/terminal window.

Most users do not need to use either of these commands, since nearly all modern clients change the sizes automatically using "Telnet NAWS".

MUME will in fact use at most one less than the specified width, as some really ancient terminal programs did not work well with text in the rightmost column.

If you disable word-wrap using change wordwrap or in XML mode (change xml), MUME will ignore the terminal width.

Some users like to override the height to prevent the game from paging the output of shop lists, etc. You can temporarily disable the pager by choosing a height of 65535, but most clients will automatically reset it for you.

What is MUME?

MUME, Multi-Users in Middle-earth, is a multiplayer text-based online game based upon J. R. R. Tolkien’s Middle-earth during the epic wars of the late Third Age between the forces of the Dark Lord and the armies of the Free peoples. MUME is completely at no cost and has been continuously running, expanded, and remastered by a community of volunteers since 1991.
