Howdy David,

Before the rants start about not reading this and finding that here
and there before posting to the mail list etc...I'll tell you the
easiest I think to add in a patch of this magnitude is to grab copy of
a bpl with it already patched in.  That is if you haven't already
heavily modified your MUD yet and don't mind starting from
scratch...Del's bpl17 package has worked great for me personally.
(http://www.circlemud.org/pub/CircleMUD/contrib/server/circlebpl17-OasisAsciiHedit.zip)

It includes a slew of good patches and features.

Now everyone can start yelling about "read the FAQ" or the "WTFAQ" or
"Search the mail list archive" or "look on the website" etc etc etc...

Regards
Scott
