I am using MUSHclient 3.26 (in Windows XP Pro) and have run into a problem recently, one that never appeared before.

When I open a new world window, it works fine. If I do ctrl-k, or some other combination that I seem to accidentally trip occasionally, the command area will reverse. What I mean is that the scroll bar goes from the right side to the left side and my typing goes from the left side to the right side (and sticks new characters at the left end, which is bizarre).

The only way I've found to fix this is to kill the world window and reopen it. Does anyone know what is causing this and how I can prevent it from happening (beyond not doing the things that break it).

Thanks.

I have never heard of this before, and certainly there is no code in MUSHclient to do it.

I suspect that your keystroke is triggering some "international" thing in XP, such as thinking you are in Hebrew or Arabic mode, so that the typing goes right-to-left. I can't think of any other explanation.

I had not even considered that...Thanks, I'll try to ferret out the problem in XP.
