SimpleMU is a Winsock-based client designed for connecting over the Internet to a MUD game server. It is written with the MUSH style of game server in mind (such as TinyMUSH, AlloyMUSH, TinyMUX, and PennMUSH). It also works with other game types, including MUDs, MUCKs, MUSE and MOOs. It also features full ANSI color support, multi-server support, file logging, and history recall. It supports triggers, aliases, gags, macros, color highlighting, logging with log omissions and spawned windows.

This update adds MU* specific features like a MAIL Editor, and Soft-Code uploading, MUD support for Speed Walking and MUD Client Compression Protocol.
