Clients
Section titled “Clients”A client is a program for playing on a MUSH. It is easier to use than plain telnet: it keeps a long scrollback, remembers what you typed, and offers macros, triggers and logging. The web portal’s Play page is a client too, and needs nothing installed.

Client list
Section titled “Client list”These are some clients in wide use. SharpMUSH’s developers do not make them, and their sites can change.
| Client | Runs on | Site |
|---|---|---|
| Mudlet | Windows, macOS, Linux | https://www.mudlet.org |
| MUSHclient | Windows | https://www.gammon.com.au/mushclient |
| TinTin++ | Linux, macOS, Windows | https://tintin.mudhalla.net |
| TinyFugue | Linux, macOS | https://tinyfugue.sourceforge.net |
Mudlet also draws what the game sends it over GMCP, such as a map and gauges: see gmcp. A game running the gmcp-mudlet package offers Mudlet an interface package, which Mudlet installs: a panel with the room, gauges, chat and a map. +help gui says which one and how to turn it off.
