Hitting the `down arrow` to clear the line prompts you..

---------------------------
MUSHclient
---------------------------
Replace your typing of

"asdf"

with

""?
---------------------------
OK Cancel
---------------------------

not once (as expected), but twice.

ie. When I press OK on this dialog, the dialog just re-appears. Pressing OK the second time (on an identical dialog: "

---------------------------
Replace your typing of

"asdf"

with

""?
---------------------------
OK Cancel
---------------------------

") works fine.

Pressing cancel works fine on both, too.

This happens with "New World.."s (without loading any defaults) so it (probably) isn't a scripting/[plugin]/trigger/.. problem.

It also happens with any of my worlds, new or not.

Oh, yeah. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

It happens on current worlds and on new worlds.

Looks like a definite bug. You can set ESC to delete the current input line, or for now Ctrl+A to select all, then delete or just type over it.

Heh, I know this sounds weird, but I use..
End, [hold shift], Home, [hold control as well], Right
, normally starting with an Up to recall the previous line.

This means that, for example:
chat @pulls out her axe.
becomes:
chat 
(note the space).

Very useful once you get used to typing the key combination.
