Hi, perhaps automated MUSH lists and quick checks by new users might benefit from the addition of a couple of fields to INFO: genre and age-range?

With good wishes, Eric T.

Replying to EricT:

Perhaps also website home page?

Could this be done without breaking existing spiders?

Finally got this to work, after several hours of trying to do it a really stupid way, and then coming to my senses and doing it the easy way. The patch adds a new config directive in mush.cnf,

info_text field value

For example, info_text Website http://mush.pennmush.org

Which changes the output to 

### Begin INFO 1.1

### End INFO
