Ok... I made the required changes to my operating system to allow me to choose which program I want to open an .MCL file with... So no worries. :)

This raises an interesting point. MUSHclient can process XML world files in two different ways:


  • Edit it (ie. in the Notepad)
  • Interpret it (ie. open as a world file)


I can see your point, however at present the MCL extension interprets the world file, while the XML extension is for editing (eg. a plugin).

Ok. Finally getting around to playing with xml and script files some more...

I tried renaming a world file from the .MCL extension to .XML. The result, MUSHclient would not load the file while it has the .XML extension. I made the change because I hacked my registry to offer opening XML files in Notepad as an option. I suppose I could apply the same hack to .MCL files, but it seems like it probably should be natural for MUSHclient to open .XML files properly as well.
