   Ok... Maybe I'm being stupid, but I've gotten into the habit of
   looking at every new mud that has anything like a combat system in it
   to see what it's like.  So, I tried to get onto DUMII.... Well, after
   I telneted to it (my mud.el client just couldn't find it).  I
   remembered seeing this mud before, and when I tried to log on and got
   the really strange random carriage returns being inserted as I typed I
   began to wonder.  Is this mud for real, or is this a joke mud?  I was
   a little suspicious before, but now I'm really suspicious?  No insult
   intended if it is a real mud, but I've never seen a mud do what that
   mud did when I tried to log in.  Thanks,

I suggest you get mymud.el V1.25 via anon ftp from golem.ps.uci.edu.
In addition to all the other advantages I have recounted at great
length in other posts in this group, it strips ^M's, has an option to
automatically remove blank lines, and in addition you type your input
in a window different from the one in which all output is displayed.

Also it is rather trivial to add new muds to the list.
