I've used MUSHclient for a long time, and never run across this particular problem before. And there might be a file somewhere that tells me what I did, or how to undo it, but I can't find any files that just give a rundown of what the field names are either, so I don't know what words to search for.

I was typing and maybe hit ctrl when I meant to hit shift, and another key, and suddenly the area where the worlds go (the main grey area) got pushed to the right so that it takes up less than 1/3 of the window. The worlds still exist within that window, but it is less than 80 characters wide, so I have to move a world back and forth within this small area in order to read. The rest of the window is taken up by a blank white field that has no data.

Hitting the arrow-question mark (help) button and clicking on this field gives the response "The topic does not exist. Contact your application vendor for an updated help file". I cannot find a file on hotkeys that come pre-made in MUSHclient so I can't reverse engineer the mistake, and restarting the program without saving does not undo this change. I've tried resetting world defaults on the off chance it would help, and it didn't. I could send a screenshot of this setting change if it would help. I know my post is vague. I just don't know the lingo to describe my problem.

If so, you have moved the Info toolbar. Go to the View menu and select "Reset Toolbar Locations". That should fix it.

Think its about time, now that we have functional secondary windows, to reconsider how to throw away that blasted buggy MS toolbar and replace it with something that actually works all the time, maybe. lol
