You mean user-programmable buttons you click on to do things?

Not really, although it has an activity button bar which shows activity in up to 10 open worlds, and you can click on those to activate each one.

However you can use so-called macros to program the function keys, eg. press F5 to "kick kobold" or whatever. This is quicker than buttons anyway as you can hit them without taking your hand off the keyboard and picking up the mouse.

The other thing you can do is make aliases to make shorthands for things you want to do a lot.

Also the numeric keypad is programmable, it defaults to 8 for north, 2 for south, etc. but you can customise them to anything you want.

your aliases will recognise any macro commands you send, so you can go ahead and set up an alias to call a groupenable script or whatever you want, and then have the macro button fire the command that the alias responds to..

For world.enablegroup to work you must enable scripting, and check the "script escape character", which defaults to "/". Then you must put that in front of what you type so it gets executed as a script and not sent to the MUD. eg.

/world.enablegroup "groupname",1

Scripting... umm never do it.. Zmud is so more user friendly and has more features.. but like i said it's slow... So far it looks like mushclient sucks on user friendly features. But i am willing to take some time to use it if i can somehow get some one on one help.. i'll even go play on the mud they play for a bit untill i get stuff figured out..
