In response to a recent request I present a plugin that will switch you to the next world with new activity (new output from the MUD).

Just install the plugin and type "na" (New Activity) and MUSHclient will switch to the next world with new output. You will need to install it into all worlds, so that when you type "na" again the one you just switched to will also recognise the alias.

You can customise the alias from "na" to something else (see about the 4th line in the plugin).

You could make a macro key (eg. F10) to send the "na" so you can save a keystroke. Then just hit F10 to switch to the next world.

To install, copy from below the line and paste into a notepad window, then save it as NewActivity.xml, or just download it from:

http://www.mushclient.com/plugins/NewActivity.xml
