VT100 screen flash
 
Hello,

I was trying to get "screen flash" to work in the mud I am coding in. I didn't manage to do that with the ESC-code I thought it is.

After some research I thought that maybe I should try with another client, I tried it with putty. It worked.
The thing that does it is VT100 "SM" and "RM", and as escape codes I did it with ESC[?5h and ESC[?5l

I found those are in VT100 specs, and as zMud is VT100 compatible, shouldn't those work in zMud also? I might have some settings wrong in my copy, I tried to fiddle with those but did not succeed.

LPC code to try that:

tell_object(find_player("tester"), "And the sky flashes!n\0o33[?5h\0o33[?5l");
