When i tried to do a world.colournote "dimgray", "", "Hello", the program correctly displayed Hello on a black background coloured as dimgray, and then "restored" the background color to dimgray, instead of black (the normal background color). What's wrong?

What plugins are crashing? I can't reproduce this. I've got 6 of the supplied plugins installed under XP and no crashes.

I can't reproduce this either.

This, for instance, works like I expect it would ...

/world.colournote "dimgray", "", "Hello"
/world.note "hi there"

No, umm, now i think it might just have been the "Bleed background color to edge option" that caused it. But now MUSHClient crashes whenever i try to execute my plugin... the EQHit:Help command works, but the EQHit:Reset command and EQHit:ShowReport commands just crash MUSHClient. I even tried reverting to 3.30, to no avail. That version crashed too. I even rebooted, the problem persists. Try downloading my plugin and trying it out, the URL is, hmm... Well, it's in the "Plugins" section of the forum, under the "EQ Damage counter plugin" subject.

OK, I found a bug that where you had RGB colours on a line, and "bleed colours to edge" it would choose the wrong one to bleed to the edge (the foreground, not the background). Fixed in the next version.

But are you saying that the bleed option also caused the crashes in the plugins?

I can't get your eqhit:showreport to crash. Have you changed it recently? The colournotes seem to be commented out.

Yes, i commented them out because 3.30 crashed, i tried to reenable one for testing in 3.31 but that one crashed too... if you change the world.note "-------" to world.colournote "dimgray", "", "------", it crashes :(
Actually, it still crashes on every colour command. Do you want me to send you the xp memory dump next time it happens or something?

No, the memory dump wouldn't tell me much.

I tried your plugin under XP and it doesn't crash. There must be something in your configuration that is different to mine.

I tried setting "bleed colours to edge" and it still works fine.

Can you send me your world file, so I can see if some obscure preference causes it? If I can't make it crash I can't see why it is happening.

OK, I made a sub to print coloured notes, like this:
Sub CrashMush (strName, strLabel, strWildcards)
World.ColourNote "gray", "dimgray", "Crash!"
End Sub

I made the alias, "crash", and ran it. Sure enough, it crashed. Then i remembered i forgot to save it. I opened it up, created it again, saved, and now it doesn't crash :(

There is something funny going on here. I gather it isn't crashing for anyone else? Yes? No?

What vbscript DLL are you using? Try downloading the newest one mentioned by Shadowfyr recently, see the link at the top of the VBscript topic section of the forum. I think it is called scr56en.exe. Simple examples like the one above are all through my plugins and they are not crashing for me.
