This feels like a noobish question to me, but, I can't seem to find it anywhere in the configs and admit I may just be dumb enough to miss something easy. :)

I'm using version 4.43 (but if I recall correctly, I had this issue with a previous version once before), and on Threshold, our prompts are incredibly simple, in fact it is a single ">" sign. But it looks incredibly weird, and in fact is kind of awkward that all text sent to the MUD appears on the line below the prompt.


========================================================

Example:
> 
l
Room Title

   This is a room's long desc. It is incredibly boring and crappy because I'm
just writing sample info for you to see what I'm talking about.

     Obvious exits are left and right.

   Some item.
   Some other item
> 
'hi
You say, "hi"

========================================================

I've tried fiddling with "Convert IAC EOR/GA to new line", but whether it's checked or not makes zero difference looks exactly the same. Any help would be appreciated.

There is an option in world configuration -> Input -> Commands "Keep commands on prompt line".

Does checking that help?

Exactly. That does EXACTLY what I was looking for. I think I was suffering from "looking too hard". Your help was greatly appreciated.

Thank you so much.
