sending <enter> before text
 
I've got this problem where zmud doesn't start a new line after my prompt before writing new text.
I have disable the echo of commands which is why instead of the command it continues with room titles and so on next to the prompt.
What i would like instead is that it breakes the line after the prompt and starts on a new one afterwards. Is it possible to make it send a newline signal (enter as an example) before whatever text you have in your input box or are there other ways to do this?

Is it possible you can provide a copy/paste sample of your mud's prompt?

Code:
7am <680075hp Opp:None W > Vnum:95804 Area:Meeting of the Minds   # [God of Torture] Flarrg the Merciless, Purveyor of *SOULS*
[ Hand of Fate ] Groo the Wanderer.....
[God of Deceit ] Elial the Obscure, Weaver of Lies.

Players found: 3. Most so far today: 4.


Done with a who.
As you can see the who list starts on the same line as my prompt instead of the next line.

#tr {(*)} {#echo %char(13);%-1} "" {input}

Perhaps will help you.

Oh? It doesn't expand the values?
Well... just do

#echo

Then instead of %char(13);%-1..

Perhaps this might help.

In your settings at, View|Preferences|General -> Preferences|General|Emulation
Make sure that the boxes for Telnet options and Use GA/EOR for prompt are checked.

If you are wondering what the above is all about, try reading this:
