Hi All.

I'm used to play MUD with long and detailed prompts. As a Braille user, I left my Braille display landed over the prompt and listening to the Jaws speech to read the windows output. This is espacially good when fighting, cause you have the HP, Mana and other character stats directly under your fingers in real time.

But, there is a problem: each one or two lines of output, the screen reader reads all the prompt and this prevent to play. Most of blind I know avoid the problem whiping out the prompt or reducing it at just the Hit Point number.

With GMud and its Jaws Script, I have found a nice solution by the way. Those scripts allow to set what they call "Ignore string". With that feature you might say to Jaws to ignore all the output which contain a certain word or string of characters. So, I could have a very long prompt and Jaws simply jumped it while reading the MUD Output.

Now I wanted to try VIPmud which seems a very powerful and fleksible Mud Client. It has also the possibility to write scripts in order to manage and customize your favourite mud and my question is: may I do the some thing I did with GMud?
Is it possible to write a script in VIPMud or to configure it in order to let 
Jaws Ignore certain outputs?

Thanks.

Gabriel.
