MUSHClient

Got the following message:

Quow's Cow Bar Notice:
Unable to detect the ASCII map from the MUD... 
If your ASCII map window continues not to work repeatedly, things you can try are:
Your 'term' might need resetting, or 'options output map' settings need changing to 'top'
You should also consider doing 'options output shortinlong=on' and 'prompt off' to help the plugin process game text more easily.
These things and more can be set by typing 'minimap discworldconfig' which changes many Disc-side settings for you.
