Anarchy Online: Update

Abandoned Facilities

It seems that somebody forgot to clean up after themselves when
conducting some biological experiments in the swamplands on Rubi-Ka.
Freelancers working with the ICC are attempting to contain the
situation, while the Terra Firma clan and Omni-Med are accusing each
other of irresponsibility and sabotage, respectively.

Chat and GUI changes

• Fixed a bug causing the internal mouse-position to be one

  the wrong window in some cases when the framerate was low.

• Added support for the and HTML tags (turns underlining on/off).

• It is now possible to disable underlining and linkcolor on
  hyperlinks by adding a "style=text-decoration:none" attribute to the
  [A] tag.

• When text-decoration is disabled the color and underlining of
  individual parts of the hyperlink can be controlled with [FONT]
  and [U] tags.

• The fade-delay and fade-time for fading text messages is now user configurable.

• Clicking on a group name in a chat window will now make that
  group the default output channel for the window. SHIFT + click on a
  group name will activate text-input and insert "/group
  <groupname> " into the input bar (this will also happen if you
  leftclick a group that is not subscribed to the window anymore even if
  SHIFT is not pressed).

  window for that user. SHIFT+lefclick on a username will activate
  text-input and insert "/tell <nick> " into the input bar.

  report left/right distinguishing keystates for qualifiers
  (SHIFT/CTRL/ALT).

• Chat windows with both clickthrough enabled and text input disabled will now allow items to be dropped "through" the window.

• Increased the character-reference description size limit from 1KB to 31KB.

• Fixed a bug in the chat auto-completion system. If typing very
  fast, or when the framerate was low the auto-complete menu sometimes
  popped up when hitting SPACE even if an exact match should have been
  found.

• The text-view will now read/write ANSI text to the clipboard on
  windows versions that don't support UNICODE. Should make cut/past
  between the chat and external programs work on Win98.
