• /grab command will now strip any ansi codes in the text. (evaluated codes, like: OOC Shae's Office On Duty, not %ch codes.)

• Resolved an issue where spawn windows opening when the application was not active might cause inconsistencies in the activity notice.

• Fixed a typo in the /qcmush command indicating that you were opening it as a MUD type.  (Thanks Adam)

• Using /qcmush can result in creating the same world name twice, which will erase the primary one if you choose not to save it.  Fixed.
