Perfect! I think that should wrap up everything I wanted in a nice package.

Barring some unexpected failure along the line I think that solves my issue.

Thanks a heap for the help, and for the great client :)

Use SendNoEcho instead of Send:

And then, hopefully last newbie question, how do I go about omitting the blank line from output? The standard timer omit from output doesn't seem to be kicking in unlike with running a gibberish timer.

Or is that simply a blank reply from the server or something similar?

Set the timer to "send to script" and put the Send () in the "send" box.

They get sent. In Lua, I do this: Send ()

Along the lines of just hitting enter, or hitting spacebar + enter?

Apologies on the sudden cluelessness, I was under the impression completely empty lines didn't get sent at all.

Can't you send just a blank line? Anything would keep Mr. WRT54G happy, and then the server won't respond with an error message.

So, my WRT54G router's firmware is set up in such a way that I can't alter the automatic idle timeout, which disconnects me from MU*s after approximately 10 minutes of idle time.

The only solution for this I've found is setting up a timer to fire every 9 minutes that sends 'ping' to the server and gets a generic 'I don't understand what you mean' response.

I've figured out how to omit the 'ping' from both my output buffer and log, and I would like to omit the generic server reply as well.

Is there any simple way for me to do this?
