Changing encoding

Mudlet supports displaying text in many languages other than English, called encoding - this helps Mudlet display the spanish ñ, the Russian я, and many other letters. Go to Preferences > General to set the encoding:

Prefer UTF-8 if your game supports it.

Note Note: choosing the encoding will help Mudlet display the letters right, but triggers will not work with non-English text and nor will some Lua string. functions like string.len(). We'll be adding these features incrementally and it will all be ready in Mudlet 4.0.

The list of encodings supported by Mudlet is:
