MCCP is a compression protocol built into several mud clients, which
compresses the data between the MUD and your client.  This means that the
MUD uses less bandwidth, which can help prevent lag.

Any player may use MCCP.  Some clients have it added and enabled by default,
while others may require a change in settings or a separate proxy (see
below) to use MCCP.

* Players with MCCP compression on may see their usage statistics by typing
  'compress'.

* Players using the 'bigmap' command suffer less lag if MCCP is enabled.

Note that the Aardwolf Mushclient, CMUD and Mudlet come with MCCP enabled
by default.
