genericMud v0.10.0

genericMud maps as you explore

• On MUDs that tell the client which room you are in, genericMud now builds a
  map while you play. Alt+M reads out the room and where each exit leads,
  including which exits you have not been through yet.
• Type /goto and a room name to walk there by the shortest way the map knows.
  Type /label and a name to name the room you are in so you can come back to
  it, and /map to hear how much of the world you have mapped. Maps are saved
  for each world.
• Walking to a mapped room goes one room at a time and stops if something moves
  you off the route, such as a teleport or a trapdoor, instead of carrying on
  from the wrong place.
• Only rooms the MUD identifies itself go on the map. A MUD that does not share
  your location says so, rather than building a map that would walk you into a
  wall.

MUDs that used to sit silent now work

Four handshakes were missing, and each one made a MUD look broken.

• Soundpack cues over MSP. Servers that wait to be asked, which includes many
  SMAUG-based MUDs, were sending no sounds at all. Reported in #1.
• Music and sound now stop when the MUD says to stop. An off cue used to be
  treated as a file named Off, so entering one area with music meant it played
  over everything else for the rest of the session. Looping ambience such as
  rain and wind loops properly, and music volume is honoured.
• Room and character data over GMCP. Nothing arrived until the client
  subscribed, so "where am I" had nothing to say and careful walking could not
  tell when you had arrived.
• Room and character data over MSDP. Same problem, so every piece of live MUD
  data in a command field came back empty with nothing to explain why.

genericMud now tells the MUD it is a screen reader

• It answers the terminal-type question properly, including the screen reader
  flag. MUDs that check it stop sending ASCII art, maps and progress bars.

It stops talking over your screen reader

• Download progress no longer speaks percentages. NVDA already follows the
  progress bar itself, so those announcements talked over your own beeps, and
  over a deliberate choice to turn progress output off. The stage it has reached
  is still spoken, because a progress bar cannot say that part.

Disconnects explain themselves

• When a MUD closes the connection and says why, whether that is kicked,
  banned, shutting down, or logged in elsewhere, you now hear the reason
  instead of a plain lost connection, and genericMud no longer reconnects
  straight back into a kick.
• Fixed every command being written to the session log as three asterisks after
  a reconnect.

The manual covers the whole client

• The README now explains everything genericMud can do, and opens with the four
  keys you need to start playing.
• Walking is documented properly for the first time: how to write a route like
  .3n2e, what ..3n2e does differently, and what the breadcrumb trail can and
  cannot take you back through.
