I'd like to suggest that a linefeed <lf> be stuck at the end of the default
prompt for new players/rebirthers. The current default tends to create
annoyances, such as the first line of room descs getting misplaced, most often
when one is rapidly entering commands. This bug/whatever seems to carry across
at least two clients and win-telnet. A good old fashioned linefeed at the end
seems to clean things up a great deal. Just a nitpick.

prompt anymore - and hence messes up the thing for every well-behaving
client in the world. Perhaps a suggestion to put <lf> there if you run into
problems is due, but I do oppose the default having that.
