Message
When the server sends very long output, MUSHclient halts display of the current output part-way through until the next new message arrives from the server. This makes it look like MUSHclient is broken (I mean, it kind of does mean that).

This is the shortened packet debug for displaying the output from one command on Aardwolf ("board ideas" then "note list"):

<MUSHclient pauses here waiting for a new message before continuing to display this one>


The whole message is quite long: https://p.teknik.io/Simple/sV3Vg

Calling Simulate while the output is blocked doesn't help. Display of the message output won't continue until a new message arrives.

I don't know, except that there could be a problem with the Windows message pipeline.
