"BLIND MODE" BLINDMODE

BLINDMODE is for people using screen readers.  It TOGGLES a few things automatically
(briefcombat, melee, brief, compass, sound, and color) and also suppresses other text.

For Linux and Mac users, there is a tintin++ pack that improves accessibility (including
audible sounds for many actions) and makes extensive use of our MUD Server Data Protocol
variables.  Check out the pack's gitlab page:
https://gitlab.com/hjozwiak/tintin-kallisti-pack

If you already have the kallisti pack from gitlab: to easily update your existing 
installation, change to the tintin-kallisti-pack/.git/ directory, then run sed -i 
's#github.*/gitlab.com/hjozwiak/tintin-kallisti-pack.git#g' config or just reclone the 
pack with the new address, which ever you feel more comfortable doing.

For other clients, you can use MSP (Mud Sound Protocol) with Zmud, Cmud, etc. by
downloading the sound pack and toggling on sound.  The sound pack is here:
