This might not be the right board for this, but I was wondering if there were SetOption props for vt100 stuff such as blinking text etc. Something like
SetOption("vt100", true)

No, I never wanted to make MUSHclient a terminal emulator. If you want one, PuTTY is very good.

I never implemented blinking text, because if isn't a native drawing mode - the only real way to do it is to draw the screen, and then redraw it a second later with some missing, and then put it back, and so on.

I do a lot of work with LPC, and I found out about different text types, like 'emergency', 'shout', 'info/general', etc etc etc. Is this part of the same thing?
And no, I'll never switch to PuTTY :P

No, that sounds different.

It isn't clear exactly what you are looking for. However as far as blinking text goes, that is not implemented and probably never will be.
