WHAT IS Zmud?
   Zmud is a mud client.  It is a program that makes mudding easier by
letting you type less.  With a mud client, you can assign shortcut keystrokes
called 'aliases' to execute a typing-intensive command or even link commands.
In addition to other functions, you can create 'triggers' which will cause you to
immediately execute an action when a specified event happens in the mud.

WHERE CAN I GET Zmud?
You can download the most recent copy of Zmud as shareware at http://www.zuggsoft.com
You can download a reliable older version 4.62 at http://www.dsl-mud.org

WHAT CAN I DO WITH IT?
   The attached pages contain Zmud alises, triggers, and other useful bits I've
picked up along the way.  I've broken them down into two categories:
     (1) Everyday Uses.
     (2) Player Killing Uses. ("Clanners")

HOW DO I MAKE SENSE OF THOSE PAGES?
    (1) Purpose -- Tells you what the code does.
    (2) Required -- Tells you if you need anything for the code to work.
    (3) Pattern -- Causes you to instantly perform an action when this pattern appears.
