Here's an interesting idea - this is what I did on Ruin! mud:
in the comm.c file, in make_prompt, somewhere near the end add this:
if (FIGHTING(d->character))
sprintf(prompt, "%s Victim:%d", prompt,
GET_HIT(FIGHTING(d->character)));
This will add the hitpoints to the prompt - much easier for players to
read and see. Also, you can add the coloring right into this line.
Hope this helps!
