There is a summary of recent changes (including some screen shots) at:

www.gammon.com.au/mushcli...hanges.htm

In brief, the improvements are:

Triggers

Improved trigger-handling - can match on multiple lines
Triggers that match on multi lines pass all lines to scripts
Triggers can now match on incoming colours
Triggers can now be used to colour individual words, not just the whole line
Triggers can now make words or lines bold, italic or underline
Triggers can now send to the output window, the status line, a notepad window or the log file
Triggers can optionally play a sound only if the world is inactive
Perl-compatible regular expressions in triggers, aliases, find screens
Triggers can now be sequenced, so they execute in an order you determine
Trigger matching has been speeded up

Defaults

Default colours/triggers/aliases/macros/timers/fonts - you can now specify triggers etc. that will apply across all worlds.

Spell checker

Spell checker - can check on request or automatically as you type commands

Colours

Custom colours - 16 extra colours for triggers, and other uses. Custom colours can be named so you can see their purpose when selecting them from the drop-down menu.
Button to swap normal and bold colours
Buttons to lighten/darken all colours, or add/remove colour saturation
Colours in the colour configuration screens can be copied and pasted

Character name generator. Generates random names like Rhiralath, Eralinyth, Cadaleg and Glaliseth.
All typing can now optionally go to the command window (no more typing into the output window and having it discarded)

Logging

Auto-log option for logging every time you connect
Auto-log file name can automatically include the date/time
Logging can now have a line preamble and postamble, that is, something that is logged at the start and end of each line (eg. the date and time)
Log files can now have a postamble, that is, something that is written when the log file is closed
Logging in HTML is now supported

Aliases

Option to omit alias from output
Perl-compatible regular expressions in aliases

Scripting

More scripting properties

Change case (upper to lower, lower to upper)
Convert files to and from DOS/Mac/Unix text formats
Find and replace
Send to world, or send to world command window
Parenthesis-balancing for checking MUSHcode with nested brackets
